LEARNA NEWWORD
UBIQUITOUS
Its meaning: Existing or being seen everywhere at the same time; constantly encoun- tered; widespread. Ubiquitously is the adverb form and ubiquitousness is the noun form. It’s from the Latin ubique meaning everywhere and from ubi meaning where. Popular use of the word began in the early 1830s with some traces of it as early as the 1500s. Examples: “McDonald’s restaurants are ubiquitous.” “By the time iPods had be- come ubiquitous, people were no longer impressed by the Willie Lloyd was showing his patriotism at the Bolton Fourth of July parade.
