El león y el ratón

Había una vez un león que estaba durmiendo. Un ratón comenzó a correr sobre su cuerpo y lo despertó. El león, enfadado, atrapó al ratón con su gran garra. El ratón le suplicó al león que lo dejara ir, prometiéndole que algún día le devolvería el favor. El león, riéndose, lo dejó ir. Más tarde, el león fue atrapado en una red por unos cazadores. El ratón escuchó sus rugidos de ayuda y corrió para liberarlo, royendo la cuerda de la red. El león comprendió entonces que incluso los más pequeños pueden ayudar a los más grandes.

I hope this doesn't cause you any setbacks!

Today we're talking about a phrasal verb that you can use to talk about those times that you don't know what to say. Those moments in meetings or presentations when someone asks you a question, or you get to a challenging part of what you're saying and you stop talking. You just can't find the right words. Maybe you'll find this a useful phrasal verb to describe what sometimes happens to many of us!

Silence... sudden silence... Are you OK?
