 Idiomatic expression I was wondering, have you heard the expression " lost in the desert", meaning missing home, or not knowing what to do? "lost at sea" does it have the same meaning as the above one ? Thanks a lot Bye Jorge |

| I haven't personally heard them in that context, but they sound as if they could be used like that.

| 'Lost at sea', or 'I'm all at sea' are used in that context. I haven't heard the 'desert' version myself. |
