Ubiquitous

Ubiety and ubique are second and third, after uakari, of the words not capitalized in the U section. Uakari is any of several medium-sized, tree-dwelling Amazon basin monkeys of the genus Cacajao, the only New World monkeys having a short tail: all are now rare.

Ubiety means, the property of having a definite location at any given time; state of existing and being localized in space. It sounds like it has something to do with math or logic, as in, how can something not be in a location at any given time?

Ubique is Latin for everywhere. So, of course lead to ubiquitous, which means pretty much the same thing.

By the way, remember what I said about the dominance of the letter, “S”? We have six letters remaining, including, “U” and all of those letters combined occupy about 60% of the number of pages dedicated to the letter, “S”. I’m just saying.
