Best Answer

"Sei still" is the common more polite phrase when speaking to a friend or family member, meaning "be quiet." For more than one friend or family member, "Seid still"; for a stranger or someone you are formal with, "Seien Sie still."

Common vulgar and impolite terms are "Halt die Schnauze" and "Halt die Fresse" or "Halt das Maul" or "Halt dein Maul". In terms of register, these three translations are closer to the register of "shut up" in English.

Another option is to say simply "still" which means "quiet!" This is also quite rude.

Halt den Mund!

Halt die Klappe!

Halt die Fresse! (offensive)

You could say "Ruhe" which is a command to basically tell someone to shut up.

You could also say "Still noch", but you probably would be better off saying Ruhe.

Hope that helped.

The nice version is just:

Halt den Mund.

The ruder version is

Halt deine (verfluchte or verschissene) Fresse.
