Operas uttrykk og vanlige setninger
It's not over until the fat lady sings
This phrase means that you should not assume the outcome of a situation until it is officially finished. It comes from the tradition in opera where a large lady, usually in a starring role, sings the final aria or song.
Eksempel: I know we're behind, but remember, it's not over until the fat lady sings.

Eksempel: The singer performed the aria in full voice, captivating the audience.
Merk: While 'opera' specifically refers to a type of musical performance, 'in full voice' focuses on the manner in which someone is singing.
Hit the high notes
To 'hit the high notes' means to perform exceptionally well or to achieve success, especially in a challenging situation. It originates from the high-pitched and difficult vocal ranges often found in opera music.
Eksempel: She really hit the high notes during her performance of the opera.
