Ample \Am"ple\, a. [F. ample, L. amplus, prob. for ambiplus full
on both sides, the last syllable akin to L. plenus full. See
{Full}, and cf. {Double}.]
Large; great in size, extent, capacity, or bulk; spacious;
roomy; widely extended.
All the people in that ample house Did to that image
bow their humble knees. --Spenser.
2. Fully sufficient; abundant; liberal; copious; as, an ample
fortune; ample justice.
3. Not contracted of brief; not concise; extended; diffusive;
as, an ample narrative. --Johnson.
Syn: Full; spacious; extensive; wide; capacious; abundant;
plentiful; plenteous; copious; bountiful; rich; liberal;
munificent.
Usage: {Ample}, {Copious}, {Abundant}, {Plenteous}. These
words agree in representing a thing as large, but
under different relations, according to the image
which is used. Ample implies largeness, producing a
sufficiency or fullness of supply for every want; as,
ample stores or resources, ample provision. Copious
carries with it the idea of flow, or of collection at
a single point; as, a copious supply of materials.
``Copious matter of my song.'' --Milton. Abundant and
plenteous refer to largeness of quantity; as, abundant
stores; plenteous harvests.
