EXPRESSIONS WITH LARGE-1: meaning and examples

Hello everyone. I hope you had an excellent weekend!

This week we are going to look at some expressions with the word LARGE, which is a synonym of last week's word, BIG.

Today's expression is: larger than life

Meaning: looking or behaving in a way that is more interesting or exciting than other people, and so is likely to attract attention.

Example 1:
Jack is a larger-than-life guy; he's noisy, very friendly and always making jokes.

Example 2:
Many of the characters in Almodóvar's films are larger than life.

I hope you have a great day!
