    1: glaringly noticeable usually because of inexcusable badness or objectionableness

    2: out-and-out, utter

    3: visible without the aid of a microscope


    Origin: 14th century ;

     Middle English grosse, groce "large, thick, coarse, not in detail, plain," borrowed from Anglo-French gros, grosse "large, great, fat, pregnant, important, (of flour, salt) coarse" (also continental Old French), going back to Latin grossus "thick," "unripe," of uncertain origin;

      * Note : The Latin adjective grossus occurs in some manuscripts of De re rustica by the Roman agricultural writer Columella (1st century a.d.), taking the place of, in other witnesses, crassus "thick" and crūdus "unripe." It is difficult to separate this word etymologically from the noun grossus (or grossa), used by agricultural writers and Pliny to refer to an unripe or abortive fig. As an adjective in a variety of senses, grossus has outcomes in nearly all the Romance languages and dialects.;
