wide (A1)
カタカナ: ワイド
IPA: /waɪd/
Definition
Measuring a large distance from one side to the other; not narrow. 'The road is wide enough for two trucks.' 'Wide' extends beyond physical measurement: 'a wide range' means many different things; 'wide experience' means broad experience; 'wide awake' means completely awake. Japanese learners may confuse 'wide' with 'large' or 'big' — but 'wide' specifically refers to the horizontal span, not general size.
意味: 一方の端からもう一方の端まで大きな距離がある；幅が広い。'The road is wide enough for two trucks.'（その道路は2台のトラックが通れるくらい広い）。'wide'は物理的な測定を超えて使われます：'a wide range'（幅広い範囲）・'wide experience'（広い経験）・'wide awake'（完全に目が覚めている）。'wide'は一般的な大きさではなく、水平方向の広がりを特に指します。
Examples / 例文

彼女は幅広い知識を持っている。 — She has a wide range of knowledge.
目を大きく開けて見てごらん。 — Open your eyes wide and look.
