The Chinese word 大规模 (dà guī mó) literally means "big scale" or "large scale". It is composed of three characters: 大 (dà), meaning "big" or "great"; 规 (guī), meaning "scale" or "standard"; and 模 (mó), meaning "model" or "pattern". Together, these characters convey the idea of something that is large in size or scope.The word 大规模 is often used to describe events, projects, or phenomena that are of a significant scale or magnitude. For example, it can be used to describe a large-scale construction project, a large-scale military operation, or a large-scale natural disaster. It can also be used to describe something that is widespread or extensive, such as a large-scale epidemic or a large-scale social movement.The word 大规模 is a relatively modern term, and it is not found in classical Chinese literature. However, it has become increasingly common in modern Chinese, and it is now one of the most commonly used words to describe something that is large in scale or scope.
