كيف نقول at the sea السلام عليكم كيف تقول at the sea مثلا: "When I was at the sea, I didn't go in the water. I only sat on the beach." I mean the sea as a general location, not literally inside the water. If I say في البحر it sounds like I was in the water. Do I use عند? Also, what is the right verb for going into the water? عندما كنت في/عند البحر لم أذهب في الماء / لم أذهب داخل الماء / لم أدخل الماء ، فقط جلست على الشاطئ كيف تكتب هذه الجملة؟ شكرا
