the wide spread of information
The act of making information or ideas known to many people.
Padrão de uso:
the dissemination of [information/ideas/knowledge]
Erro comum:
Learners sometimes say *"dissemination about information"* instead of the correct *"dissemination of information"*. Use the preposition "of" after "dissemination" when mentioning what is spread. Learners may also use it in very casual contexts where simpler words like "spread" or "sharing" are more natural.

spread (More general and less formal; can refer to many things, not only information.)
|

|

spread (A more general and less technical word for movement to a wider area.)
|
metastasis (A specific medical term for the dissemination of cancer cells to distant sites.)
