Jun 25, 2022 at 12:55 | comment | added | Billy Kerr | at large is an idiomatic expression. It has several possible meanings depending on the context. The at liberty, escaped sense is used when referring to criminals or a dangerous person/animal. In the example however, at large has a different meaning here. It means as a a whole. You could reword it as the whole class. | |
