The phrase combines terms for enormous size with the concept of having nothing to compare it to.

Origin

The phrase 巨大無比 is formed by combining four characters. The first two, 巨 and 大, mean huge, gigantic, enormous, or of great size. The remaining two characters, 無 and 比, mean to not have, there is not, or there does not exist, and to compare, contrast, or have a contest.

Within this construction, the character 比 contains a phonetic component. This component is 匕, which refers to a kind of spoon in ancient China.

「巨大無比」是由四個漢字組成的詞彙。其中「巨」字表示巨大、龐大；「大」字表示體積大、巨大；「無」字表示沒有或不存在；「比」字則表示比較、對照或競爭。

在字形構成上，「比」字包含了表示聲音的形聲成分，「匕」字意指古代的一種湯匙。整個詞組透過這些字元的組合，用來形容事物之大已到了無法進行比較的程度。
