Word of the Day

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for February 5, 2026 is:

adulation • \aj-uh-LAY-shun\  • noun

Adulation refers to extreme or excessive admiration, flattery, or praise.

// The triumphant players were greeted with shouts of adulation.

See the entry >

Examples:

“Curators focus on the sunnier side of Elvis's tragic story, yet Graceland still provides an intimate glimpse into superstardom and all that comes with it: the adulation, the opulence, the hangers-on and the darkness that counterbalances such a burst of light.” — Rick Rojas, The New York Times, 29 Nov. 2025

Did you know?

If witnessing a display of adulation reminds you of a dog panting after its beloved person, you’ve picked up adulation’s etymological “scent”; the word ultimately comes from the Latin verb adūlārī, meaning “to fawn on” (a sense used specifically of the affectionate behavior of dogs) or “to praise insincerely.” Adulation has been in use in English since the 15th century. The verb adulate, noun adulator, and adjective adulatory followed dutifully behind.
