Explanation
Plus is a word used to show addition or something extra. In math, it means adding one number to another, and also the name of the “+” symbol. In this mathematical use, it works like a preposition because it shows the relationship of addition between two numbers, as in two plus two equals four. In daily language (informal), it is used to talk about an extra benefit or advantage of something. In this case, it almost always appears as: “a plus”, “the plus”, or “one plus of”, such as flexibility is a big plus in this work. It is also used as a conjunction to add more information or connect ideas. For example, she is kind, plus she is very helpful, which means she is kind and also helpful. It helps make sentences clearer when listing reasons or benefits.
