意思
Water with a great distance to bottom.
文化背景
The Baltic Sea is the center of Estonian identity. 'Sügav meri' is often associated with the 'avameri' (open sea) where the big waves are. Similar to Estonia, Finns have a deep respect for the 'syvä meri'. Their mythology also features sea spirits like Ahti. Historically, the 'deep sea' between Estonia and Sweden was a path for trade and escape. In international shipping, 'deep sea' refers to waters beyond the continental shelf.
Agreement is Key
Always remember to change the ending of 'sügav' if you change 'meri'. If it's 'meres', it must be 'sügavas'.
Don't say 'Sügav ookean'
While correct, Estonians almost always say 'meri' even when referring to the ocean in casual speech.
