Слово umpteen означает большое, но точно не известное число или количество чего-либо.There are umpteen reasons why I don't want to go to Moscow in December, but I'll give you just one — it's very cold there. — У меня множество причин, по которым я не хочу ехать в Москву в декабре, но я назову тебе только одну — там очень холодно.
Синоним этого слова - umpteenth (бесчисленный):For the umpteenth time I tell you I'm not going. — Сто раз я говорил тебе — я не еду.
Это слово образовалось от слова umpty, которое обозначало у сигнальщиков тире в азбуке Морзе, а слово iddy обозначало точку. Так как звучание этого слова было похоже на звучание слов twenty, thirty и т. д., то это привело к тому, что его стали использовать для обозначения любого крупного, но неопределённого числа. -
