An archipelago is a large group of islands.

Responses

true
true

false

Answer 1

The statement is generally considered true. An archipelago is defined as a group or chain of islands. However, the term does not specify size, so it can refer to both large and small groups of islands. In common usage, though, the term often implies a larger grouping. Therefore, the statement can be considered true, but it may not always convey the full nuance of the definition.
