The answer

DISCO

What disco means

A nightclub or dance venue where people dance to recorded pop and electronic music, typically with colorful lighting effects and a dance floor.

Where the word comes from

Disco comes from the French word "discothèque," which combines "disque" (record) and the Greek suffix "-thèque" (collection or library, as in "bibliothèque"). The French term originally referred to a nightclub where recorded music was played for dancing, a concept that emerged in Paris in the 1950s. The shortened English form "disco" became common in the 1960s and eventually dominated the vocabulary for the music genre and dance culture of the 1970s.
