Imaginary limes are sweet and tangy. =D
But imaginary lines on the other hand refer to lines of latitude and longitude. The 'beginning' latitude line is the equator, which is at 0 degrees and runs east-west around the middle of the earth.
The 'beginning' longitude line is the Prime Meridian, which is at zero degrees and runs north-south between the poles and goes through Greenwich, England.
Between the Prime Meridian and Equator are other lines that go in the same directions and have different degree names (30 degrees west, or 60 degrees north etc.) They're "imaginary" because of course there are no big lines running around the world, they're just for maps.

What is the difference between a globe and a map?
Hey this is Lily4eva and you will be seeing allot more of me on this site and all of my answers are true! A globe is a replica and true representation of the earth's shape and surface. A map cannot provide an accurate representation of the earth's surface because it is a flat surface. (Try pasting a map on a globe.) It doesn't work. Maps use projections like the Mercator Projection to show the earth's surface but it causes distortions because a map is flat and the earth is spherical in shape.
