blonde
blonde [blonde blondes] adjective, noun [blɒnd] [blɑːnd]
adjective (also blond) In British English it is usual to spell this word blonde when writing about a woman or girl and blond when writing about a man or boy, although the spelling blonde is sometimes used for men and boys too. In American English the spelling blond is often preferred for either sex. Blonde may be used to describe a woman's hair, but it is sometimes considered offensive to refer to a woman as ‘a blonde’ because hair colour is not a whole person.
1. (of hair) pale gold in colour
2. (of a person) having blonde hair
• a small, blond boy
Word Origin:
late 17th cent. (earlier as blond): from French, feminine of blond, from medieval Latin blundus ‘yellow’, perhaps from Germanic.
