☆ bottle up (感情を)押し殺す
============================
When you bottle up strong feelings, you do not express them or show them. The most common emotion that people bottle up is anger. Unfortunately though, feelings that get bottled up usually come out in some way eventually – and usually at the wrong person, and the wrong time, right?
A good way to remember this word might be to have an image of a champagne bottle – imagine “bottling up” all your feelings into a bottle of champagne, eventually they will come out, and probably with a big pop!
Bye,
