What does MUCHO mean in Scrabble?
adjective
informalNorth American
Very, or a great deal of; a Spanish loanword used informally in English for emphasis.
Mucho is borrowed directly from Spanish, where it means much or a great deal, and English speakers use it to add a jokey, emphatic flavour to ordinary statements. Someone who says mucho gracias or mucho fun is deliberately reaching for a foreign-sounding word rather than treating it as fully naturalised English grammar. The word turns up mostly in casual American speech and advertising, where its Spanish origin gives it a light, breezy feel. It rarely appears in formal writing, where a plain English word such as very would normally be preferred.
How MUCHO is used
Informal, chiefly North American, used for playful emphasis rather than in careful or formal English.
- Thanks mucho for helping me move the sofa.
- The trip cost mucho more than we had budgeted.
- He had mucho respect for his old coach.
- That new phone has mucho storage for the price.
- She showed mucho enthusiasm for the plan.
