### sense in the lessons

In stories, somewhere keeps a place mysterious (somewhere in the forest). In everyday safety, if you go somewhere, tell an adult where you are going. In maths estimation, "somewhere around 50" means approximately 50. In American English, "someplace" means the same. Phrases: somewhere else, somewhere near, somewhere around, get somewhere, somewhere over the rainbow.
