Everyday Language: A Podcast For English Learners

Hey, there, this Mark, in Akita, from the  Everyday Language podcast. Today I want to talk about the idiom "a little bird told me".   So, do you know any little birds who can talk? Hmm, maybe not, right?    But actually, this idiom isn't about real little birds that talk. It's actually, an idiom that is used when - you are trying to hide, or you don't want to tell the identity of someone who told you some information.
