champagne

/ʃæmˈpeɪn/

nouncham · pagne

Think: “SHAM-PAYN” — it may look fancy, but it sounds like sham + pain (without the i): champagne.

Yes, it's champagne. The tricky part is the ending: it’s spelled **-pagne** but pronounced **-pane** (like “payn”).

Definitions

  1. nounA sparkling white wine from the Champagne region of France.
  2. nounAny similar sparkling wine (often used informally, though not technically correct).
  3. nounA pale yellowish-beige color, like champagne.

  • “They opened a bottle of champagne to celebrate the graduation.”
