tidal wave
A tidal wave is a large ocean wave, especially one caused by an underwater earthquake or volcanic eruption (commonly known as a tsunami). However, the term is often misused to refer to everyday, regular sea waves. It was historically used to refer to a tide-like wave occurring in rivers and other enclosed bodies of water and not related to sea tides.
