Caulfield: Mrs. Olsen thinks "penultimate" means the same thing as "ultimate". Frazz: Did you set her straight? Caulfield: I gave up. Because I know english and physics. Like immovable bodies and resistance and stuff. Frazz: You are smart. Caulfield: Would've been smarter not to use the word "mass."
I learned the meaning of “penultimate” in Doc Smith’s old Lensman series of books.
