It's not actually a word (in the dictionary) it's part of a 50's movie title - "Love is A Many Splendored Thing (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love_Is_a_Many-Splendored_Thing_(film))"
Love is a many-splendored thing, It's the April rose that only grows in the early spring, Love is nature's way of giving a reason to be living, The golden crown that makes a man a king. Once on a high and windy hill, In the morning mist two lovers kissed and the world stood still, Then your fingers touched my silent heart and taught it how to sing, Yes, true love's a many-splendored thing.
(I believe this question has come up on the gay-card exam from time to time...)
It also was a title of a short lived Soap Opera from 1967 to 1973 :-) & used the theme song from the Movie & the opening credits were superimposed over the Golden Gate Bridge!
