Ne plus ultra is a noun that refers to the highest point attainable.

Our word of the day comes directly from a Latin phrase that translates to ‘not further beyond.’ It basically indicates the ultimate or best of something. Example:

Ralph began his music career as a mediocre guitarist, but after years of hard work and study, he became the ne plus ultra of rock guitarists.
