There are different ways to describe dimensions in English, using nouns,

adjectives and verbs. The most common way is with an adjective or a verb, e.g.

The height of the vertical stabilizer is 11.76

m. The vertical stabilizer is 11.76 m high.

The length of the fuselage is 37.57

m. The fuselage is 37.57 m long. w- =.....
...., en
The width of the fuselage is 3.95 • IC

m. The fuselage is 3.95 m wide.

The weight of the aircraft is 57,000 kg.

The aircraft weighs 57,000 kg.

The measurements of the cargo hold are 2.09 m x 4.95 m.

The cargo hold measures 2.09 m x 4.95 m.

The capacity of the inner tank is 6,900litres.

All these adjectives of dimension are with an incorrect contrary, e.g. WIDE is
not the contrary of LONG. It is SHO RT. Cross out the incorrect word and
write the correct contrary in the right-hand column. If you have difficulty, look
