When your history test results are superlative, it means you’ve gotten a perfect score — you’ve done as well as can be done, if not better than everyone else.

词源：
superlative(adj.)late 14c., superlatif, “supreme, most excellent, raised or occupying the highest pitch, position, or degree,” from Old French superlatif “absolute, highest; powerful; best” (13c.) and directly from Late Latin superlativus “extravagant, exaggerated, hyperbolic,” from Latin superlatus “exaggerated” (used as past participle of superferre “carry over or beyond”).
This is from super “beyond” (see super-) + lat- “carry,” from *tlat-, past-participle stem of tollere “to take away” (see extol). Related: Superlatively; superlativeness.
In grammar, in reference to the highest degree of comparison (of adjectives and adverbs, indicated by -est or more), from c. 1400. The noun is attested from mid-15c., originally in the grammatical sense, “a word in the superlative;” hence “exaggerated language” (1590s).also from late 14c.
