1. 1大錢、鉅款;賺很多錢(口語,帶點調侃,類似「賺翻了」「一大筆錢」)

    Megabucks means a huge amount of money. It is casual, slightly joking American English, and it is always plural in form — you say 'megabucks', never 'a megabuck'. You will hear it in phrases like 'he's making megabucks' or 'that house cost megabucks'. It does not name a real quantity; nobody could tell you how many dollars megabucks is. That vagueness is the point — the speaker is saying 'so much money it's silly'. Because it is playful, it often carries a small shrug of envy or , as if the money is more than any normal person needs. It fits conversation, headlines, and advertising; it does not fit a business report or anything formal. It sounds a bit dated to younger speakers now — more 1990s than today — so you may meet it in older films and articles more than in current speech. Note that 'buck' by itself is everyday slang for one US dollar.

組成mega- (Greek megas, 'great, large'; here just an intensifier meaning 'huge') + bucks (slang for dollars).
