spaces
Gaps between things
Spaces are empty areas or gaps between things—the spaces between words, the space between buildings.
A space can be a designated area: a parking space, office space, storage space.
Space itself is the boundless expanse beyond Earth's atmosphere.
To space things is to arrange them with intervals: Space the chairs evenly.
To space out is to lose focus or become distracted: Sorry, I totally spaced out there.
