يُخلط عادةً مع
Imminent means about to happen soon, while immense refers to size or scale.
While similar, immense often implies something so big it is difficult to measure, whereas enormous is a general term for very large.
ملاحظات الاستخدام
Immense is frequently used to describe abstract qualities such as 'potential' or 'pride' rather than just physical dimensions. It is a strong adjective, so it is rarely used with modifiers like 'very'.
أخطاء شائعة
Learners sometimes use 'immense' as a verb or noun; it should only function as an adjective. Avoid saying 'very immense' because the word already implies an extreme degree.
