Did You Know?
 
Multitudinous is one of many English words that make use of the combining form multi-, from Latin multus, meaning "much" or "many." Multicolor, multifunction, and multimillionaire are just a few of the others. Multitudinous is the kind of highly expressive word that you can rely upon when you want something a little more emphatic than plain old numerous. Among its synonyms are multiple and multifold, two more members of the multi- family.
