Daily English Pod
I’m Jale, an English teacher and graduate in Applied Linguistics from Canada. From Monday to Friday, I share short, practical educational podcasts. On Saturdays, you’ll hear an engaging story, and on Sundays, we explore artistic topics. Like a real magazine, these podcasts cover current issues, culture, society, and history in clear, easy-to-understand English. If you’re interested in learning English and understanding the world around you, this podcast is for you. With me, you’ll not only practice English but also gain a broader perspective on the world.

Hitch
is a small problem or difficulty that slows something down or makes it less smooth than expected. It’s not a disaster — just a bump in the road.
Examples:
1- They moved into their new house without a single hitch. That almost never happens!
2- The only hitch during the meeting was a poor internet connection — otherwise, it was a success.

The wedding was beautiful. There was a small hitch with the cake delivery, but they laughed it off. The team launched the new product, and everything worked — no hitch at all.
What do you think “hitch” means? A hitchh,” it means everything went perfectly.
Examples: There was a hitch in the plan — the is a small problem or difficulty that slows something down or makes it less smooth than expected. It’s not a disaster — just a bump in the road. So if something happens “without a hitcphotographer got stuck in traffic and arrived 30 minutes late.
