You know what the ‘sea’ is. But do you know any phrases with ‘sea’?
If you’re at sea, you feel confused and maybe a bit lost.
I studied so hard… I don’t know how I failed – I’m completely at sea.
If your relationship has ended or someone you like is no longer single, you might say there are plenty more fish in the sea – there are lots of other people you could have a relationship with.
I know it’s hard breaking up, but there are plenty more fish in the sea.
If you look out at a sea of something, it means you can see lots of things in front of you. For example, when it rains, London turns into a sea of umbrellas!
And if you go to sea, you set out on a voyage.
You can’t go to sea in this weather – there’s a huge storm coming!
