Have you ever heard the

expression 'it's good to talk'?

Well, here are some reasons why.
2

00:06
If you 'bottle things up'
3
6800
2160
00:08
and don't say how you're feeling,
4
8960
2352
00:11
those feelings might get worse.
5
11312
2448
00:13
If they get worse you might
6
13760
2080
00:15
'take your feelings out on other people'
7
15840
2720
00:18
and make them suffer, even when
8
18560
2080
00:20
it's not their fault.
9

00:22
This won't feel great so you might
10
22640
2480
00:25
just disappoint yourself or
11
25120
2320
00:27
'let yourself down'.
12

00:29
OK, enough bad life advice from me.
13

I'll just stick to teaching.

So how do we use these phrasal verbs?
15
33440
2774
00:36
They all need an object:
16
36214
1946
00:38
'something' or 'someone',
17
38160
1440
00:39
and they are all separable.
18
39600
2320
00:41
'To bottle something up',
19
41920
2240
00:44
'to take something out on someone'
20
44160
3120
00:47
and 'to let someone down'.
21
47280
2160
00:49
Do you ever do any of these things?
22
49440
2855
00:52
Maybe you have some

00:53
better advice than I did.
