A wide, important street in a city, often with trees or a space in the middle.
Μοτίβο χρήσης:
a boulevard in [a city]
Συχνό λάθος:
Learners often use 'boulevard' and 'street' or 'road' as if they were exactly the same. In many cities, a boulevard is usually wider, often has trees or a central strip, and is an important or grand city street. For everyday use, 'street', 'road', or 'avenue' are more common, and 'boulevard' is often part of proper names (e.g., 'Sunset Boulevard').
Συνώνυμα
avenue (Very close in meaning; in many cities it is a similar wide street, but 'avenue' is more common and broader in use.)
|
main road (Emphasizes importance for traffic rather than being inside a city or having trees or a median.)
|
thoroughfare (More formal and general; means a busy route through an area, not necessarily wide or tree-lined.)
Αντώνυμα
alley (An alley is narrow and often between buildings, the opposite of a wide, grand city street.)
