  Comments:
The two words often come together like in 最大の規模 or 規模が最大…

They are used in a counter-intuitive way sometimes in the meaning of "the biggest", so I figured an entry would be needed to clarify this nuance and their special relation as "words that often come together".

ex.
「JMDictは現時点で最大規模のオンライン日英辞書です。」
