in a small pond. Okay. Let's take a look at the note. This idiom

could be reworded as a big fish in a small or little pond or pool. So you

could either substitute you say either small or little or pond or pool so you

can mix it up a little bit. All right. Let's continue. This idiom means that someone

is strong and has influence, but only in a small area. If he or she changes to a

larger pond, they are not as strong or influential and perhaps just ordinary,

not special at all. Okay. Let's continue. Here's some examples. Example number one.

Yeah. You often hear somebody say I would rather but with this too. So I would rather

be a big fish in a small pond than a nobody in a larger pond. That's the way

somebody might say it. Or number two. You know, a real full example. That actor

was very successful in Hong Kong. He tried to move to LA and make it big in

holly, Hollywood. However his career went nowhere

for a few years. He decided to move back and continue his career in Hong Kong. He

would rather be a big fish in a small pond than a relative nobody in Hollywood.

Okay that's just the way we would use it. Anyway I hope it's clear. I hope you got

it. Thank you for your time. Bye-bye.
