to be as good or exciting as people say · to meet high expectations
This expression is perfect when you're talking about something, especially a travel destination, that everyone has been raving about! 🗣️ Was that famous spot *really* as amazing as all the Instagrammers made it seem? You'd use this to find out if it matched the buzz! ✨
💡 **Pro Tip!** You can also use this expression in the negative, like "It totally didn't live up to the hype," if a place or experience was a disappointment. 😩 So, it's great for both praise and gentle criticism! Just be polite, please! 😉
Which situation is NOT appropriate for using 'live up to the hype'? A. ✈️ You're asking a friend if their recent trip to a much-talked-about city was as great as expected. B. 🍔 You're wondering if a newly opened, highly-rated restaurant lived up to its reputation. C. 🌦️ You're describing a sudden change in weather during your vacation.
