sky
/skaɪ/
When used as a noun, "sky" is usually singular and refers to the overall expanse above us. We typically use it without an article (e.g., "under the sky") or with "the" (e.g., "the sky is blue"). As a verb, "sky" is most commonly used in sports contexts, such as golf or cricket, to describe hitting a ball too high and straight up.
