# elsewhere

adverb (elsewhere)

«elsewhere» in the English dictionary: everyday and in Jewish tradition — its meanings, how the lessons use it, and examples, each with its tree on Mova.

## Everyday

In or to another place, somewhere else. [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/school/E/elsewhere/#m1)

### In the lessons

In everyday life: «look elsewhere» if you can't find something; in maps and geography it compares places: «it is colder here than elsewhere». In stories it moves the scene to another place. Phrases: «look elsewhere», «go elsewhere», «here and elsewhere».

### Examples

- If they were not dead, they had flown elsewhere. [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/school/E/elsewhere/#x7)

### Note

One word. It is an adverb, so it does not take «the» or «a». Same as «somewhere else». Say «nowhere else», not «nowhere elsewhere».

## In Jewish tradition

In everyday life: «look elsewhere» if you can't find something; in maps and geography it compares places: «it is colder here than elsewhere». In stories it moves the scene to another place. Phrases: «look elsewhere», «go elsewhere», «here and elsewhere».

### Examples

- Elsewhere in the SY, the ‘tongue’ (or ‘wedge’) appears as the symbol of a central balance between two extremities, e.g. (Sefer Yetzirah, Sefaria community translation) [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/judaism/E/elsewhere/#x1)
- Instead, the SY may be intimating a twofold pronunciation of Resh known among certain mediveal Jewish communities in Babylonia and elsewhere, which does indeed preserve a distinguish between ‘single’ Resh and ‘double’ Resh.
