Meaning: This verb means to reach the highest point or to reach the end or final result of something.
Origin: When a star or other heavenly body culminates, it reaches its highest point above the horizon from the vantage point of an observer on the ground. Culminate was drawn from Medieval Latin ‘culminare, meaning ‘to crown,’specifically for this astronomical application. Its ultimate root is Latin ‘culmen’, meaning top.
Usage: The festivities will culminate with a spectacular display of fireworks.
