"Kudos" is a jonders term

I sent out an email to participants of a recent company activity I organized, asking for their feedback/evaluation. Oddly, around 1 out of 3 respondents said "Kudos for a job well done!"

Uhm... What's up with KUDOS? I don't even know what it really means except that I loved them Kudos chocolate chip granola bars I used to eat as a kid!!!


I know it's like a term for congratuations but it just sounds too ancient! Pang-lolo like “regards”! Jonders na jonders!

The dictionary says it means the following:

1. honor; glory; acclaim: No greater kudo could have been bestowed.
2. a statement of praise or approval; accolade; compliment: one kudo after another.

“No greater kudo could have been bestowed”???!!! I imagine King Arthur saying this when he knighted his best men at his round table. Hahaha!
