معنی
A large body of water with great depth.
زمینه فرهنگی
Estonians have a 'Sea Culture Year' (Merekultuuriaasta) to celebrate their maritime heritage. The deep sea is often seen as a place of both bounty and spirits. In places like Käsmu, the 'deep sea' was where the 'captains of the world' were trained. It represents ambition and global connection. Ancient Estonians believed the sea was a living being. 'Sügav meri' was the realm of the Sea Mother (Mereema). The Baltic Sea is actually quite shallow on average (55m), so 'sügav meri' is a relative term used for the few deep spots like the Landsort Deep.
Agreement is Key
Always remember that if you change 'meri' to 'meres', you must change 'sügav' to 'sügavas'.
The 'ü' sound
Don't pronounce 'sügav' as 'sugav'. Round your lips as if to say 'oo' but say 'ee' instead.
