Usage notes
Ulterior is primarily used today to mean impure, covert, external motives, and generally not opposed to etymological antonyms. In the comparative sense “beyond, farther”, the Latin antonym is , which is not used in English (compare (m)/(m) for “nearest/farthest (cause etc.)”). In the sense “after, subsequent”, it can be opposed to (m), but the sense “after” is now archaic (compare (m)/(m) for “first/last”).Derived terms
