Ola Vs Onda
What is the exact difference between 'ola' and 'onda'... both translate into English as 'wave'. Any examples would be super helpful.
Many thanks in advance.

Ola almost always refers to sea wave, or something that metaphorically refers to sea waves. Onda has more meanings. It may refer to hair waves, microwaves, and sometimes sea waves as in onda marina.
