Etymology

The word 'exult' comes from the Latin word 'exultare,' which means 'to leap up' or 'to rejoice.' It combines the prefix 'ex-' meaning 'out' and 'saltare,' meaning 'to leap.' The term was used in English from the late 15th century and has retained its meaning related to displaying intense joy or triumph. Over the centuries, exult has been used in various literary and religious contexts, expressing profound joy not only in achievements but also in celebrations of faith and communal events. Its usage in modern English still captures the essence of jubilant celebration and overwhelming happiness.
