'plethora' means overabundance or surplus.

the word, these days, is being used to denote plural of a noun. but the classical exponents of the language observe the usage of this word in the present context with a frown. my high school teachers advised me to use replacements for 'plethora' whenever i chanced to use the word for emphasising my point.

but i guess these days it is accepted; ateast it appears to be so.
