To Have Butterflies

TO HAVE BUTTERFLIES

Welcome to English in a Minute!

Butterflies are some of the most beautiful creaturens in the world.

The way they flot along in the air is so lovely.

But what does it mean…

Let’s see how to use this phrase in a conversation.

Hey Anna, how did your presentation go yesterday?

Oh, it went well, but I had Butterflies in my stomach the whole time!

Speaking in front of a large group of people like that always makes me nervose!

To have butterflies means you feel nervous or excited about something.

You might know the feeling of having butterflies in your stomach before a very important event.

You can have butterflies before a big test, when you are on a first date, or like Anna, during a presentation.

And that’s English in a Minute!
