Bonuse

Bonuse is not a recognized word in standard English. In contemporary usage, it most often appears as a misspelling or typographical variant of the word bonus, which refers to an extra payment or advantage beyond what is usual or expected. When encountered in formal writing, bonuse is generally considered an error and should be corrected to bonus.

In addition to its role as a potential error, bonuse can appear as a proper noun in fictional or creative works. Authors may use bonuse as the name of a place, organization, character, or other entity, often within a speculative or invented setting. Such usage is nonstandard and specific to the work, rather than part of established vocabulary.

When editing or processing text, bonuse is typically flagged by spell checkers as a misspelling of bonus. If the term appears in non-English contexts, it may have a distinct meaning related to a proper noun or a borrowed term, but there is no universally accepted definition beyond its use as a possible name in fiction. In general, the standard form to convey the intended meaning is bonus. Related terms include bonus and bonuses.
