A bully is somebody who uses their strength or power to frighten or hurt weaker people.

Now, what is a coward, C-O-W-A-R-D? Well, the Oxford English Dictionary says it's a person who is not brave enough to do the things most people don't find difficult.

So, are bullies cowards? Are bullies stupid, unintelligent? If that were always true, then when somebody is bullied at school, he or she just needs to get their big brother and the bully will run home crying to his mother.

If it were that simple, then bullying in schools today wouldn't be the huge problem it is.

In fact, some of these words I'm going to explain at the beginning are B2 words.

My name is Mike Bilbre and these are podcasts for students of English at B1 or B2 levels.
