A French word meaning 'each one' or 'everyone'; used in English mainly in the phrase 'chacun à son goût' (everyone to their own taste).
From Old French 'chacun,' from 'cha' (from 'ca,' Latin 'quod') plus 'un' (one). It literally means 'each one' and has been used to express the idea of individual preference since medieval times.
The French phrase 'chacun à son goût' became so popular in English that it's used without translation to mean 'there's no accounting for taste'—it's a sophisticated way to say everyone likes different things!
