Word of the Day: Jitters
Everyone gets the jitters.
When you have the jitters, you’re nervous.
When we do something for the first time, it’s natural to get a case of the jitters.
Can you believe that some people say they never get nervous?
I don’t believe them myself.
I mean, everyone gets nervous sometimes.
When a person starts a new job, gets married, or even takes an English lesson with a new teacher for the first time, they get nervous.
When we try something new or do something for the first time, it is entirely natural to get a case of the jitters.
We all get nervous from time to time; we just can’t let our nervousness stop us from doing new things.
