far-off
Not at all near
Far-off describes something distant in space or time: a far-off land, far-off days of childhood.
The word suggests remoteness that feels significant or evocative rather than merely measurable.
It's slightly more literary than distant or remote, often appearing in nostalgic or imaginative contexts: She gazed toward the far-off mountains.
