Phrase of the day “Deep Down”

We use this phrase to say that

deep inside ourselves we know or feel something that perhaps we have not admitted to ourselves or others.

It’s used informally, and can be both spoken or written.

Here’s an example:

Mark 🗣 “I’m sorry to hear that you and Debbie split up. You were together for years”

Tony 🗣 “Thanks..but deep down I knew she wasn’t the right person for me”
