Hello, Fellas. How are you today? This evening we are going to discuss “debutante.” Are you familiar with this word?
The very first time I found “debutante” is when I was reading historical fiction novel. It was about a selection to get a bride for crown prince of a kingdom.
If you take a look in Merriam-Webster dictionary, “debutante” is originally a French word. It means grand attendance of an upper-class young lady to parties. Since they are a high-class parties, the lady definitely wears her best gown to create a good impression.
Generally, debutantes will be presented in a royal party in order where the nobles may choose one of them as their soon-to-be bride. Here are some illustration of the “debutante” usage in a sentence:
- “Nina is the most debutante in this season.”
- “A debutante should have a beauty as well as a good education.”
