The Word of the Day for November 6 is:
beaucoup • \BOH-koo\ • (adjective) slang: great in quantity or amount; many, much A little more information about today’s word: In French, as you may know, "beaucoup" is an adverb meaning "a lot" or "much" (as in "merci beaucoup," meaning "thanks a lot"). "Beaucoup" isn't used on its own as an adjective in French; if you want to say "many" in French, you would use the phrase "beaucoup de." In other words, you would say "beaucoup de livres" ("a lot of books"), not "beaucoup livres." But French grammar was thrown to the wind when English speakers borrowed this word. "Beaucoup" has been used as a playful slang adjective in English since at least 1918. My sentence: John and Mary spent beaucoup bucks to decorate their new house.
