What does the gap mean?

"Gap" is a figurative vocabulary, which refers to the huge differences or barriers between different classes, status, ideas, cultures and economies that are difficult to cross. This word is often used to describe the gap or difference between society or individuals, which has a strong negative meaning.

For example, we often say that "the gap between the rich and the poor is getting bigger and bigger", which means that the gap between the rich and the poor is getting bigger and bigger, which leads to the polarization between the rich and the poor. For another example, the "generation gap" refers to the differences in concepts, lifestyles and values of people of different ages, and can also be regarded as a "gap".

The original meaning of the word "gap" refers to a wide and far-reaching gap, so when it is used to describe the huge differences between society and individuals, it also has a meaning that is difficult to cross and bridge.
