Gigalopolises: Urban Land Area May Triple by 2030
https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/cities-as-solutions-to-climate-change/

Hierarchy is implicit in the very term city. Cities grow from hamlets and villages into small towns and thence into larger forms such as 'metropolis', 'megalopolis' and world cities which are 'gigalopolis'. |

Does the word "bigalopolis" even make sense in English? "Big-" doesn't at all sound like it's bigger than "mega-". |

It's in a bunch of sources. Worth keeping for parity with them at least. |

Not in English dictionaries. My refs don't explicitly call it wasei. The English term gets a few hits in publications from China. |
