Another lovely French word with no true English equivalent. I
came across this in high school when my French class studied Cyrano de Bergerac, a play. Panache is a sort of flamboyant style, or flair. It also happens to be a giant plume that one would wear on a hat (think: Three Musketeers hat).
It also just begs to be yelled out loud, but perhaps that’s just me.

It is also used in France, Switzerland and Saarland for the Beer – Lemonade mixture in Germany called “Radler”.
our teacher in school mis-pronounced this word as ‘panicky’ and it was hilarious
one of the reasons why i will never forget the word panache.
you’re right, it absolutely cries out to be yelled
PANACHE!! like that
