Word origin
The word 'ecstatic' originated from the Greek word 'ekstatikos', meaning 'causing to stand outside oneself, rapturous'. It entered English in the early 17th century with the sense of being in a trance-like state of joy. Over time, it has evolved to convey intense happiness and excitement.
