Italian word

vasto

vast, wide, extensive

Looks like

vast

of very great extent or quantity; immense

⚠️ The trap

True cognate, but 'vasto' cannot be intensified the same way. You say 'molto vasto' not 'vastissimamente vasto'. Also, don't confuse with 'guasto' (broken/spoiled) which sounds similar.

To say "of very great extent or quantity; immense" in Italian:

vasto (same meaning)

"vasto" in English means:

vast, wide, extensive

Example

"Ha una vasta conoscenza della storia."

"She has a vast knowledge of history."
