1. 1

    This word sits after a job or a skill and says: this person is amazingly good at that thing — a bit more theatrical than a plain “very good.” You read a host extraordinaire, a cook extraordinaire. English kept the French word-order: the describing word comes after the noun, not before. People use it with a smile. It is a little , a little funny; the kind of praise you put in a newspaper profile, a book blurb, or a joke about your uncle. It is not the everyday word for great. If you want a straight, serious word, you say extraordinary (before the noun). Extraordinaire feels like a wink.

    非凡的(放在頭銜後面,帶點幽默)
