Informal. fully; quite: plenty good enough. [1175-1225; ME plente < OF; r. ME plenteth < OF plented, plentet < L plenitat- (s. of plenitas) fullness. See PLENUM, -ITY] Syn. 2. plenteousness, copiousness, luxuriance, affluence. PLENTY, ABUNDANCE, PROFUSION refer to a large quantity or supply. PLENTY suggests a supply that is fully adequate to any demands: plenty of money. ABUNDANCE implies a great plenty, an ample and generous oversupply: an abundance of rain. PROFUSION applies to such a lavish and excessive abundance as often suggests extravagance or prodigality: luxuries in great profusion. Usage. The construction PLENTY OF is standard in all varieties of speech and writing: plenty of room in the shed. The use of PLENTY preceding a noun, without an intervening OF, first appeared in the late 19th century: plenty room in the shed. It occurs today chiefly in informal speech. As an adverb, a use first recorded in the mid-19th century, PLENTY is also informal and is found chiefly in speech or written representations of speech.
