豪華

1. Origins, structure, and basic meaning

• Structure: 豪華, read ごうか, is a な-adjective for something lavish, splendid, or richly presented.
• Basic usage: It takes な before a noun, as in 豪華な照明 and 豪華な料理.

2. Common pitfalls and similar expressions

• Translation by object
  • Ornate may fit lighting, while lavish or splendid may better fit a celebratory spread; the object controls the English choice.
• More than colorfulness
  • The word evaluates richness, decoration, or abundance and does not merely state that many colors are present.
