Weirdly enough, the ITU already chose the superlative for the bigliest radio frequency band to be Tremendous:

- Extremely Low Frequency (ELF)

- Super Low Frequency (SLF)

- Ultra Low Frequency (ULF)

- Very Low Frequency (VLF)

- Low Frequency (LF)

- Medium Frequency (MF)

- High Frequency (HF)

- Very High Frequency (VHF)

- Ultra High Frequency (UHF)

- Super High Frequency (SHF)

- Extremely High Frequency (EHF)

- Tremendously High Frequency (THF)

Maybe one day some very smart people will make Tremendously Large Language Models. They will be very large and need a lot of computer. And then you'll have the Extremely Small Language Model. They are like nothing.

"The Overwhelmingly Large Telescope (OWL) was a conceptual design by the European Southern Observatory (ESO) organisation for an extremely large telescope, which was intended to have a single aperture of 100 metres in diameter. Because of the complexity and cost of building a telescope of this unprecedented size, ESO has decided to focus on the 39-metre diameter Extremely Large Telescope instead."

AFAIK "tremendously" was chosen partly because the range includes 1 "T"Hz.

I like tremendous as an adjective for a frequency range because etymologically it can be traced to the Latin word for 'shaking'. Tremendous, horrendous, terrible all kinda mean "makes you shake".

Horrendous being based on the Latin root for "trembling with fear", tremendous on another Latin root meaning "shaking from excitement" and terrible deriving from a Greek root for, again, "trembling with fear".

I hope they go with "Ludicrous" like in Spaceballs.

It bothers me that the level below 3 Hz is not given the name "Tremendously low". Now it's not symmetrical. I hope the ITU is happy...

XKCD telescope sizes also could provide some guidance

TLLM is close to TLM
