an expensive is something that is of a high cost. It is used to indicate a higher price than the standard, or sometimes compared to other items.

expensive can be used in reference to all types of items, from cars, jewelry, clothing, and the like. It can even be used in reference to experiences, like exotic vacations or fine dining.

when using expensive, always be sure to include what specifically is expensive, as this helps explain to the reader what is of a high cost.
