How it's used
Use this term when describing concepts that lack boundaries or end points, such as time, space, or potential. It carries a slightly more formal or abstract tone compared to everyday descriptors, often appearing in discussions about philosophy, technology, or business strategy. When you want to emphasize that something is abundant or endless in a more casual way, people often prefer using 冇限 or 數唔晒 instead.
Examples
The room for development for this plan is infinite.
Do you think the universe is infinite?

Common mistake
Avoid using this to describe physical quantities that are simply large but finite, like a big crowd or a lot of money. Using it in those contexts can sound overly dramatic or unnatural.
