Best Answer

Hors d'oeuvre is the singular of the French phrase hors d'oeuvres.

Specifically, the prepositional phrase hors de* literally means "outside of". The masculine noun oeuvre literally means "work". The phrase loosely translates as "beyond (main) course" or "first course".

The pronunciation will be "or duhv" in the singular and plural.

*The vowel drops -- and is replaced by -- an apostrophe before a noun whose spelling begins with a vowel.
