It has sentimental value...

Hey everyone, I am back from my summer vacation and I had a great time! I am now much more relaxed and refreshed. I hope you all enjoyed your holidays as well.

Do you know the expression sentimental value?

It is pretty useful, we use it when we want to talk about something being valuable for sentimental reasons.

For example, you have a necklace made of wood and beads-it isn't really valuable BUT your best friend gave it to you in high school and you've had it for a long time... ...so it has sentimental value.

Hey be careful with that vase, it has sentimental value~!

A: Man your blanket is falling apart.

B: Yeah, I should throw it away but it has sentimental value. My grandmother made it for me.

Ok, I will try and post once more this month. Have a good week,

Phil
