Text | In this podcast, the phrase "worked up" means to be upset, to be angry about something: "Why are you so worked up?"

For example, if you plan to attend a big party and someone you want to date was going to be there, you would be nervous about going to the party. You would be "worked up" about the possibility of seeing that person at the party: "I tried not to get too worked up about seeing Gerard at the party." |
