Definition
to clap your hands together loudly to show approval or praise for someone.
Etymology
From Latin 'applaudere': 'ad-' (to) + 'plaudere' (to clap or strike). Romans literally clapped to show they liked performances.
Kelly Says
The word 'applause' comes directly from this Latin root, and ancient Roman audiences were so enthusiastic that amphitheaters had special areas reserved just for professional clappers hired to encourage crowd participation!
