Etymology
The word 'ultimo' comes from the Latin 'ultimus', which means 'the last'. It's derived from the combination of 'ultra', meaning 'beyond', and the suffix '-imus', denoting the superlative degree. The term has been used in English since the 19th century to describe something that is final or the most recent, particularly in financial or business contexts. Often, it appears in formal or legal communications, reflecting its distinguished lineage from Latin. As language evolved, it found its place in modern vernacular while retaining its original connotation of finality and lastness.
