Hello and welcome back to daily English. Today’s expression is "gut feeling." Once again: gut feeling.​ Have you ever made a decision without any logical reasoning, just a strong inner sense guiding you?​ Imagine You're about to enter a building, but something feels off, so you decide not to go in.
Or You meet someone new, and immediately, you feel you can trust them, even without knowing much about them.​
A "gut feeling" refers to an instinctive or intuitive feeling about something, not based on conscious reasoning.​

For example:​

• "I had a gut feeling that I shouldn't trust that email, and it turned out to be a scam."
  
  
  
• "Despite the data suggesting otherwise, her gut feeling told her to proceed with the project, and it was a success."​

Think about a time when you had a gut feeling. What was the situation? Did you act on it, or did you ignore it? What was the outcome?​

I'd love to hear your stories.
