Faux (pronounced like "foe") is a French word for "false" or "wrong". The word is used in English to describe things that are artificial, imitation or fake, such as generic items that are attempted to be passed off as brand name items.

"Faux" has also been used politically by liberals to describe Fox News (i.e., "Faux News").
