adjective

Excessif, abondant

Excessive, abundant.

Examples :

"I believe there's been a misunderstanding. The word "oldest" means "having lived or existed for the longest time; senior," not "excessive, abundant." There isn't a definition of "oldest" that means "excessive, abundant." "

Je crois qu'il y a eu un malentendu. Le mot « le plus ancien » signifie « ayant vécu ou existé le plus longtemps ; senior », et non « excessif, abondant ». Il n'existe pas de définition de « le plus ancien » qui signifie « excessif, abondant ».
