Range (noun): a set of similar things https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/range


To be fair, I think most usage is of the form "range of ____". Even the definitions provided illustrate this with "range of options", "range of opinions", "range of model railway accessories". The exception is "This jacket is part of our autumn/spring range", which is a formulation that I've personally never heard; I would generally expect "autumn/spring line".


Range (noun): a large box-shaped device that is used to cook and heat food, either by putting the food inside or by putting it on the top https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/range#ca...
