覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
bottled は bottle「瓶に詰める」の語末 e を残して -d を付けた過去分詞・形容詞で、発音は /ˈbɒtəld/ など。bottled water／beer なら「瓶詰めの」。bottle up は容器に閉じ込める発想から、bottled-up feelings「抑え込んだ感情」へ広がる。
Begin with the noun bottle, then picture liquid being placed inside and sealed. The verb bottle takes -d to form bottled, pronounced with a final syllabic sound in common varieties of English. Typical combinations include bottled water, locally bottled beer, and bottled sauce. The container image also explains the figurative phrasal verb bottle up: emotions are imagined as being sealed inside instead of released. Thus bottled feelings or bottled-up anger refers to emotion that has been suppressed, while bottled water retains the literal packaging sense.

bottled の語源・成り立ち Etymology
bottle（瓶）の過去分詞形。bottle は古フランス語 boteille を経て、中世ラテン語 butticula（小さな樽）に遡る。語根 buttis は「樽」を意味し、butler（酒の管理人）と同根。瓶に詰めて保存するという行為から「瓶詰めの」という形容詞が生まれた。
Bottled is the past participle of the verb bottle, which developed from the noun. Bottle entered Middle English through Old French boteille, ultimately from Medieval Latin butticula, a diminutive associated with a cask or vessel. English later made bottle into a verb meaning “put into a bottle.” Adding -d produces bottled, describing either the completed action or the resulting packaged condition.
