How to use "Hindrance" in context?
Hindrance mainly refers to any obstacle that gets in the way of someone's ability to do what they want or achieve their goal. It can be something as simple as a fence, or as complicated as a problem at work. In many cases, hindrance can be tricky to pinpoint and sometimes difficult to remove. But, if it's properly identified and tackled, it can be a very manageable obstacle.
