  • pucker up. Okay. Let's take a look at the note here. If someone puckers up he or

  • she squeezes one's lips together in preparation for a kiss. You know (mmm) kind

  • of like that. We also say someone puckers up their lips when tasting something

  • sour. You know a very sour taste you might pucker up as well. All right. Let's

  • continue here. So if you pucker up, you squeeze your lips together and out. So

  • (mmm) kind of like that. All right. So let's look at several examples here. Example

  • number one. In the movies you see actors pucker up

  • move out of the way and make some excuse why I didn't feel well. Yeah. This is probably

  • some woman. Maybe the guy was trying to sneak in a kiss at her and you know she

  • wasn't interested. So was just trying to avoid him. So maybe she might say

  • something like this. Yes basically. Or number three here. The taste of that sour

  • lemon made me pucker up...taste of that sour lemon... No. Made him pucker up

  • his lips. So again so with sour taste mmm-hmm

  • Something like that. From a sour taste. Okay. Anyway, I hope you got it. I hope it was

  • clear. Thank you for your time. Bye-bye.
