Hi Sophia
Often people will talk about their dream home, dream holiday, dream job etc where dream means ideal or ambition
In Australia we also have the great Australian dream which is to own your own house
Cheers

I can �t think of an exact equivalent either. Maybe �My ultimate dream.. � |

Sophia: don �t we say in Russian " a blue dream"?
Native speakers: is "golden dream" used in such situation?

Hi class centre. I haven �t heard of �golden dream �. We do talk of a �golden hour � and that means a time during your day when you take time out, a bit of �me time. � |

Hi, Shopia,
I entered the word "dream" there and this is what I got:
It might give you some ideas.

@
class centre: blue and pink are interchangeable:)
Well, I guess it �s either an ultimate dream or a pipe dream or a pie in the sky:) Thank you ever so much for helping me out with this. I was marking some tests, the task in which the students had to write an informal letter to a friend about their future profession so one of the ss wrote, "it �s my pink dream" which got me thinking what was the equivalent in English.
