plethora of choices

The philolog is overwhelmed, inundated and surrounded by a world where there are just too many interesting words and phrases to dissect and analyze, to pick just one each day. But today the word is plethora. I wonder where that originated. It could be Greek (just a hunch).



Plethora means abundance. Other synonyms are: jackpot, a lot, multitudenous, gazillion, abundance, superfluity, and others too numerous too mention.



It is from Greek!
