I. noun Etymology: Greek ~-, myrias, from myrioi countless, ten thousand Date: 1555 1. ten thousand 2. a great number a ~ of ideas Usage: Recent criticism of the use of ~ as a noun, both in the plural form ~s and in the phrase a ~ of, seems to reflect a mistaken belief that the word was originally and is still properly only an adjective. As the entries here show, however, the noun is in fact the older form, dating to the 16th century. The noun ~ has appeared in the works of such writers as Milton (plural ~s) and Thoreau (a ~ of), and it continues to occur frequently in reputable English. There is no reason to avoid it. II. adjective Date: 1765 1. innumerable those ~ problems; also both numerous and diverse ~ topics 2. having innumerable aspects or elements the ~ activity of the new land — Meridel Le Sueur ...Merriam-Webster Collegiate Dictionary
