Hello everyone, it seems the social distancing is working.The COVID-19 numbers here in Tokyo are starting to subside.
Today's word is free fall.
This means something is falling dramatically and substantially.
Example 1
The economy is in free fall because of this COVID-19 virus. All the shops are shut, so no business is taking place.
Example 2
After getting mixed up with a bad crowd, Jim's life went into a free fall. He is now in jail because he stole a car to get some money for drugs.
