extremely and often unusually large
Very, very large in amount, size, or number, often so large that it seems too much.
الگوی کاربرد:
astronomical [amount/price/number/cost]
اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes think "astronomical" can only be used about space or stars. In everyday English, it is very often used to describe very high prices, costs, or numbers in general. Another confusion is with the much rarer form "astronomic"; in modern English, "astronomical" is strongly preferred.

الگوی کاربرد:
astronomical [data/observations/research/unit/telescope]
اشتباه رایج:
Learners may confuse "astronomical" with "astrological". "Astronomical" is about the science of space, while "astrological" is about horoscopes and zodiac signs. Learners also sometimes use this technical sense when they really mean the figurative sense of "very large".
