Tres

/treɪ/ adverb

Definition

Very; extremely (used in English borrowed from French to mean very).

Etymology

From French 'très' meaning 'very', which came from Latin 'trans' meaning 'across' or 'beyond'. English borrowed this word especially in music and fashion contexts.

Kelly Says

'Très' is one of the few French words English speakers use to sound sophisticated, but ironically the original Latin root 'trans' (across/beyond) perfectly captures the idea that 'very' means going beyond the normal level.
