  Are you good at keeping secrets?

• 00:43

  Do you tell each other secrets between husband and wife, boyfriend, girlfriend, friends?

  Well, we all, from time to time, like to tell secrets, or we all have secrets that we want to share with somebody, but we prefer that they won't tell anybody else.

  So let's look at different ways of telling or not telling a secret.

  So, first, expression, my lips are sealed.

  Okay.

  My lips are sealed.

• 01:11

  And when they are sealed, they are shut.

• 01:16

  So nothing is going to get out.

• 01:18

  I'm not going to tell anyone.

  So, will I tell you a secret?
