Fancy can mean special, attractive, or more decorative than usual. For example, a fancy dress might have bright colours and lovely designs. It can also mean to like or want something; for example, “I fancy a cup of tea” means I want a cup of tea. Sometimes fancy means to imagine or think about something in a playful way, like the child fancied being a superhero. It also means a liking or imagination, like their fancy for climbing make them happy, or she had a fancy that she could fly over mountains like a bird. The word is used to talk about style, liking something, or imagining. It often shows something you enjoy, admire, or picture in your mind.
