enormous
Beyond merely large
Enormous means extremely large in size, extent, or degree.
The word carries more weight than big or large but less than colossal or gargantuan: an enormous house, enormous pressure, an enormous mistake.
Enormous often suggests something impressively or problematically oversized rather than merely big.
