Hi Robin
The greek word you 're refering to is ''fimotro'' and this is the thing we put on someone's mouth so he can't talk or show his mouth(it is mostly used for dogs for example) and metaphorically is used to show the censorship,as he who wears fimotro can't express himself or have an opinion.The similar verb is ''fimono'' and means to prevent someone to speak.
