  起源
  Earlier this idiom was used in 1868 as button your lips because during that period of time buttons were used to close things. After Zippers 1 started being used, this idiom was modified to zip your lip by the people. The use of this idiom can be traced back to 1943.
  早在1868年,这个习语就被用作“把你的嘴巴关住”,因为在这段时间里,按钮被用来关闭东西的。拉链开始使用后,人们把这个习语被修改为“把嘴巴闭上”。这个习语的使用可以追溯到1943。

  to stop talking(不要说话)
