Today on Plain English: North Korea announced it will send a delegation of athletes to the Winter Olympics, being held in Pyeongchang, just 40 miles from the Demilitarized Zone that separates the two countries. The two Koreas may compete together with a single women’s ice hockey team and North Korea is expected to have a pair of figure skaters compete. Our English word is "rocky." We talk about what it means to be off to a rocky start—or a smooth start, depending on the situation.
