Kudos is pronounced either Koo-dose or Koo-doze, it means praise for a great achievement, and it's singular.

I think it is a plural noun. Pronounced koo-dos.

But I am not sure that you would need to know. How often is the word "kudos" the subject of a sentence ?

I think it means that you praise someone for something they've done so if they clean the house you give them kudos. i think thats what it means
