English
Etymology
From French palmarès.
Noun
palmares (plural palmares)
- (sports, especially cycling) The record of someone's sporting achievements.
- 2024 July 19, Alasdair Fotheringham, Cycling News:
- Tour de France race leader Tadej Pogačar's latest devastating climbing performance on the road to Isola 2000 both put the yellow jersey out of reach for his rivals and simultaneously confirmed that come Sunday evening, barring total disaster, a historic Giro d'Italia-Tour 'double' will be forming part of his palmares.
Usage notes
Singular palmares refers to one person's record, so one should say "his palmares is ..." but "their palmares are ...". However, because even singular palmares "sounds like a plural" in English, it is in practice common to see uses such as "his palmares are ...".
