Idioms Ep.58: 'hang in the balance' ♎️
When something hangs in the balance, its future is uncertain. What can hang in the balance? It can be a company, someone's career, someone's health (for example when talking about a patient in a hospital). This phrase refers to something which is in a critical state.

Idioms Ep.55: 'the ins and outs' 🕵️ This idiom means 'the details', and we follow it with the preposition 'of'. We use it to talk about how something works. You can know all the ins and outs of the business, the ins and outs of the job, the ins and outs of the office politics, and so on. What about you? Do you know the ins and out of your job?

Difference Between Ep.44: 'in oder that' and 'so that'
'In order that' and 'so that' mean the same, but there are some differences in when and how we use them. 'In order that' is less common and more formal, while 'so that' is more common and less formal. Also, 'in order that' is usually followed by a verb in Present Simple, while 'so that' is followed by either Present Simple or 'will'. However, both can also be followed by modal verbs (such as can, could, might, may, would). We often omit 'that' in 'so that' in informal situations, for example, "I'm driving to work today so (that) I'm not late."
