Translation

muazzam, devasa

Definition

Enormous describes something extremely large in size, amount, or scale—far beyond what is typical or expected. This adjective is often used to emphasize the overwhelming magnitude of an object, quantity, or concept, such as a building, a sum of money, or a problem. It carries a stronger sense of hugeness than 'big' or 'large' and can be applied in both literal and figurative contexts. For example, an enormous elephant or an enormous responsibility both convey a striking degree of size or intensity.
