Thank you very much, Bob.

I'm trying to help my daughter on hidden meanings with pictures. It's too tough for me.

What is this?

Ph.D.

The letter on the top of the line is zero. It doesn't look like an letter 'O' to me.

Example 1

man
---------
board

this is "man overboard", I think

Example 2

head
----------
heels

this is "head over heels"

Three degrees below zero.
