What does hors d'oeuvres mean?

Answer:
It's French, but you've probably heard it spoken before. It's pronounced OR-DERVZ. It basically means appetizers, but they're usually served on platters at parties.

The French term literally means "apart from the main work" (apart from the whole).
It's a variety of appetisers served before a meal.
