Fun Fact
The word “ubiquitous” comes from the Latin ubique, meaning “everywhere.” It was originally used in a religious context to describe the omnipresence of God. Today, it applies to anything that seems to be everywhere at once—whether it’s Wi-Fi signals, social media trends, or that one catchy song you can’t escape on the radio!
