Episode description
In this episode, learn the meaning, origin, and everyday use of the expression “to stand one’s ground.”
As usual, the lesson will begin with a joke (this one's a pun!). Then we'll dive into the expression. Shana will explain how to use the phrase in real-life situations, and guides you through a quick pronunciation practice.
Stay tuned for next week’s follow-up episode on bison—majestic animals that quite literally stand their ground.
