Example sentences:

I had a plethora of my new product before I opened my store this morning because of the many new shipments that arrived overnight.

I ordered a plethora of computers before I started my small store because I had already heard that an abundance of people want the machines. 


This word would only be used of you are opening a shop for smart people. I have never heard this word before and I don’t think I will in the near future. People on the streets just say that "I have a lot of that" not "My Plethora amount is upon me" first of all it sounds crazy, and you would get beat up!



My word is a lot like... a lot. My word is more advanced or formal then this but still means the same thing.

But the opposite of.... lacking.



I would give these 2 out of 5 stars. Not only have I never heard of this before but I don’t think I ever will, and I don’t think it is a word that is used that widely. Maybe in AP classed for college, but outside of that, don’t think so.
