Definition:
-
(eulogy) a formal expression of praise -- typically a speech given at someone's funeraleditor's notes: A eulogy almost always refers to someone who has recently died, but it is also used under other circumstances. A related word, eulogize (to speak or write a eulogy praising someone or something), may be even more commonly used in non-death circumstances than in circumstances of death.
