Senses
1. long (in extent or duration) — Extended in length or duration, describing things that are physically or temporally long, such as long prayers or long distances traversed. Multilingual evidence distinguishes this from the 'far' sense: eng 'long,' spa 'largamente,' hin lambii (लम्बी, long), arb tawiil (طَويل, long/extended), kor gilge (길게, long), swa 'ndefu' (long). These consistently use length/duration vocabulary rather than distance vocabulary. 3×
