TO HAVE BUTTERFLIES IN YOUR STOMACH

Hello everyone. Welcome back to the Daily Vitamin.

Have you ever given a speech in front of a lot of people or participated in a high-pressure sporting event? How did you feel right before the event? Nervous?

Today's expression is: to have (or feel) butterflies in your stomach.

It means: to feel very nervous or excited about something important that you have to do.

Example 1
I remember the day of my wedding. Immediately before the ceremony, I had butterflies in my stomach.

Example 2
They say that before an important match, it's normal to feel butterflies in your stomach.

It's a very graphic expression; before an important event it really does feel like we have "mariposas" in our stomach.

Can you create a logical sentence with this expression? You can post your sentence on one of our social media sites (Facebook or Twitter) and we will give you feedback about your sentence as soon as possible.

Have a good day and I'll see you tomorrow with another lesson.

All the best!
