philipmassey commented on the word ultimo
If the meaning of "ultimo" pertains to a preceding period of time, how did it come to have such common usage in musical theatre as referring to the last number of the show--"finale ultimo"? Based on that phrase, I always thought "ultimo" meant "ultimate" or "grand," i.e., the grand finale of the show.

I think this work pertains to wine societies. An oenomony society is a group that evaluates fine wine.

philipmassey commented on the word oenonomy
I'm not sure what this word means. I saw it listed on the faculty page of Roman Weil of University of Chicago Booth School of Business as one of his interests, so I came here to find what it means.
