用法パターン: a sizable [amount/number/chunk] of [something]
よくある間違い:
Learners sometimes spell it as 'sizeable'; this form is also used, but 'sizable' is more common in American English. Another mistake is using it directly for people (e.g., *a sizable man*), which sounds odd; it is usually used with quantities or groups, such as 'a sizable amount', 'a sizable audience', or 'a sizable group'.
