In the Magga-vibhanga Sutta, this aspect of the Noble Eightfold Path is explained as follows:
And what is right speech? Abstaining from lying, abstaining from divisive speech, abstaining from abusive speech, abstaining from idle chatter: This, monks, is called right speech. Walpola Rahula glosses this by stating that not engaging in such "forms of wrong and harmful speech" ultimately means that "one naturally has to speak the truth, has to use words that are friendly and benevolent, pleasant and gentle, meaningful and useful". I guess Vaj has a way to go...oh well, at least he is in the 'initial' stages.
