large vs long

large

Big in size, amount, or extent. Has nothing to do with length.

The common mistake: "Largo" en español describe algo de gran longitud, como un string largo o un nombre de variable largo. En inglés eso se dice "long". "Large" en inglés significa grande en tamaño o cantidad, como "a large dataset" o "a large team".

"This function name is too long. Try to keep method names under 30 characters."

long

Measuring a great distance from end to end, or taking a great amount of time. This is the word for the Spanish "largo".

"The variable name is too long. Rename it to something shorter for readability."
