Hi this is Tutor Nick P and this is Verb Phrase 135.  The verb phrase today is to

The imperative

bottle up. Okay. Let's take a look at the note here. Here's number one.  If someone

bottles something up,  he or she puts something into a bottle or stores it in

a bottle. So you can physically bottle up something by putting something inside

the bottle and sealing it up. Then we could say you could bottle up something

or number two here. The second one. If someone bottles up an emotion or bad

feeling,  they hold them and don't allow them to

be expressed openly. So you could you could bottle up a lot of bad feelings

inside you. All right. So let's let's look at some examples here. The first one goes

to the first example here. This one is the one where you physically put

something in a bottle.You bottle it up.  So number one here. Every six months her

mother bottles up some homemade wine.  So maybe she makes her own wine and she

just leaves it there. You know,  maybe you know,  it needs time to you know turn into

good wine,  to ferment basically. All right. Let's look at number two here. If

you keep these negative feelings all bottled up,  you may end up with an ulcer.

So it may do some physical internal damage in your body if you keep these bad

feelings bottled up. You know,  they may take a toll on your body. Your internal

organs,  your ulcer or something like that.  So don't keep them bottled up.  All right

Number three. You need to talk to someone.  You know maybe a counselor or something

like that. You should,  you should see a counselor. If you continue to keep these

emotions bottled up you may end up having a nervous breakdown. All  right . That's

another way that people may say it. So especially bad feelings or bad emotions

if you don't talk about it or talk to someone or let them out , we say that

somebody's keeping something bottled up.  Remember, if  they bottle up, eventually

they may blow or they may have breakdown or something like that. Anyway
