This week's word is magnanimous [mag-nan-uh-muhs], an adjective meaning "generous; noble". Its synonyms include: benevolent, bountiful, and charitable. I thought it was a fitting word for the holiday season. Here are a few example sentences:
The couple's magnanimous donation provided
enough food and clothing for ten families.
Known as a magnanimous man throughout his life,
he dedicated his life to serving others.
Thank you for the gift -- it was so
magnanimous of you!
How would you use the word magnanimous?
