Hi,

What does the expression "nip in the bud" means? It was in the sentence:

"She's looking at you with forever after eyes, man! You better nip it in the bud!"

Ce membre accepte que son anglais soit corrigé par les membres de la cowmunauté.

Hi Hioton,
When you nip something in the bud, you stop a situation while it is small before it becomes serious, or too big.
