The answer

LARGE

What large means

Of considerable size, amount, or extent; bigger than average or typical.

Where the word comes from

From Old French *large*, meaning "broad" or "wide," derived from Latin *largus*, meaning "abundant" or "copious." The Latin root is of uncertain origin, though it may be connected to Etruscan or other pre-Indo-European languages. The sense shifted over time from "broad in extent" to "of considerable size" in English by the 13th century.
