terra firma
[ter-uh fur-muh]
noun: firm or solid earth; dry land
|
Terra firma refers to dry, solid land, as opposed to water or air. But it's often used as a metaphor for any stable foundation in a world that can feel fluid. Even daring explorers eventually find themselves longing for the safety of terra firma. |
Example: The exhausted sailors were grateful to leave the boat and stand on terra firma.
