breathe in
Take air in
To breathe in is to draw air into the lungs—the inhale half of respiration.
The phrase often appears in instructions: Breathe in slowly through your nose.
Beyond literal breathing, you can breathe in an atmosphere or experience: We stood on the balcony, breathing in the city at night.
