English Conversation Phrases

books placed on shelf with potted plants

I would like to learn phrases that I like. And I want to be able to actually use them.

We get nervous when we start something new, when we make a presentation in front of others, when we are in an important scene, when we attend a convention, or when we meet new people for the first time.

have butterflies in one’s stomach

This is an expression that conveys my tense emotions to others.

The literal translation is “butterflies reside in the stomach.” 

Example sentence.

My presentation is about to start soon. I have butterflies in my stomach. 

I hope you will try saying it out loud when you feel nervous.

I hope you discover many such experiences.

Slamat!
