Definition
Large open areas of land, often used for farming or covered with grass. It can also mean areas of study or work when used in a broader sense.
Usage & Nuances
The physical meaning is very common: 'a field of corn', 'play in the field'. In academic or professional contexts, 'field' means an area of knowledge or work: 'the medical field'. Don't confuse it with 'farm', which is a whole agricultural property, not just one open area.
