that movie sent shivers down my spine

the expression we're touching on today is related to fear. There's a whole range of vocabulary related to when you're feeling afraid, but today the expression is: send shivers down one's spine. So imagine you're watching this horror movie and you're very scared. Later on that day, you tell someone about that movie you watched and how scary/creepy it was. You say it was so creepy it sent shivers down your spine. Now pay attention to the expression and try to understand its meaning. When something or someone sends shivers down your spine, it gives you that cold sensation or makes you very very uncomfortable. So it basically scares the hell out of you, which is another example of expression related to fear. But we're discussing that one on a different post. I hope this is helpful. Talk to you next time!
