E197: 🎙️ Welcome to The English Like a Native Podcast with me, your host, Anna! Join us for Week 18, Day 4 of Your English Five a Day, where we enrich your vocabulary with five captivating words or phrases every weekday.

🌟 We kick off with the adjective "covert" and the verb "defect". Our next item on the list is the unusual adjective, "AWOL". It stands for "absent without leave". Then we move on to the noun "flotilla" and finish off the list by exploring the idiom "know the ropes",

⛴️ After the usual pronunciation exercise and a quick recap, we see tune in to a special news bulletin, reporting on a mysterious flotilla of naval ships that has been spotted off the coast of Spain's Costa Calida.
