Pronunciation: ' kü- ˌ däs, ' kyü-, - ˌ dōs Function: noun Etymology: Greek kydos Date: 1831 1 : fame and renown resulting from an act or achievement : PRESTIGE 2 : praise given for achievement]]> ku·do n. Pronunciation: ' kü-( ˌ )dō, ' kyü- Function: noun Inflected Form:   plural kudos \-( ˌ )dōz\ Etymology: back-formation from kudos (taken as a plural) Date: 1926 1 : AWARD , HONOR <a score of honorary degrees and ⋯ other kudo s ― Time > 2 : COMPLIMENT , PRAISE <to all three should go some kind of special kudo for refusing to succumb ― Al Hine> usage Some commentators hold that since kudos is a singular word it cannot be used as a plural and that the word kudo is impossible. But kudo does exist; it is simply one of the most recent words created by back-formation from another word misunderstood as a plural. Kudos was introduced into English in the 19th century; it was used in contexts where a reader unfamiliar with Greek could not be sure whether it was singular or plural. By the 1920s it began to appear as a plural, and about 25 years later kudo began to appear. It may have begun as a misunderstanding, but then so did cherry and pea. ]]>
