What does veritable plethora mean?

"Veritable plethora" is a slightly redundant but emphatic way of saying "a huge abundance" or "a vast quantity".

Here's how to break it down:

* Veritable: This word means "true" or "genuine." It's often used to emphasize that something is not just any ordinary example, but a real, genuine one.

* Plethora: This word means "a large or excessive amount of something."

So, when you say "veritable plethora," you are emphasizing that the abundance is not just a lot, but truly a huge and overflowing amount.

Example: "The library had a veritable plethora of books on ancient history, enough to satisfy even the most dedicated scholar."
