having many mountains

Describing land or a place that has many mountains.

استعمال کا انداز: a mountainous [region/area/landscape/country]

hilly (Suggests many hills, often lower and softer than the high, dramatic peaks implied by "mountainous.") | rugged (Focuses on rough, uneven land; often but not always with mountains.) | alpine (Specifically connected to high mountains, especially the Alps, and often used in technical or European contexts.)

extremely large in size or amount

Very, very big in size, amount, or difficulty.

استعمال کا انداز: a mountainous [amount/task/debt/object]
عام غلطی:
Learners may try to use *mountainous* for any big thing, but it is usually reserved for things that feel extremely or overwhelmingly large (for example, "mountainous debt," not just "mountainous house" for an ordinary big house).
ہم معنی الفاظ
huge (A very common, general word for very large; "mountainous" can sound slightly more vivid or dramatic.) | enormous (Also means very large; "mountainous" often adds a visual sense of mass, like something rising up.) | massive (Stresses great size and weight; "mountainous" suggests both size and an almost overwhelming scale.)
متضاد الفاظ
tiny (Describes something very small, the opposite of the extreme size implied by "mountainous.") | modest (Can describe an amount or size that is not large, contrasting with a "mountainous" amount or figure.)
