Of course! The phrase "under the weather" is used when someone is feeling unwell or sick. It's an idiom, which means it's a phrase with a figurative meaning that's different from its literal meaning. The exact origin is uncertain, but some believe it comes from the weary and sick feeling one gets during bad weather. It's quite commonly used and is very versatile, you can use it to describe feeling mildly unwell or even more ill, depending on context. Would you like to learn about any other idioms or expressions?
