Hello, everybody, welcome back to Daily Easy English Expression, the podcast, coming to you live.

Actually, it's not live, it's recorded, But coming to you from the United States of America.

one of my great classes too. Okay, today's expression, really good. It's about me. It is bursting at

the seams. Bursting at the seams. B- seams b you r s t burst i nS, bursting at the seams.

So when we say the word seems, S-E-A-M-S, we need to be thinking about clothing, like a shirt, or pants, your trousers.

So the thing about my shirt.

Now, I have a shirt and it has, you know, two arms. And if you look at the arms, actually, there's a line where they sew,

S-E-W, where they sew the cloth together.

That is a scene.

That's a scene. So a typical t-shirt is like two pieces of cloth

sewn together. And then they add more cloth for the arms. This is a typical t-shirt.

Same thing with pants. If you look at your pants on your leg, on the left side and the right side, there's a seam where they actually sewed the pants together.

Okay, so that's a seam.

So to burst, B-U-R-S-T means to rip, to rip the seams, to expand, and it's like

explode the seams. So I know many of you have never seen me in person. You only listen to my voice.

And, well, if you listen to my voice.

And, well, if you listen to my voice, you can probably notice that I am a man,

and I'm a big man.
