Etymology
أَكْمَل is the elative form of the root ك-م-ل (k-m-l), which carries the sense of completeness and perfection. It is built on the أَفْعَل (afʿal) pattern that Arabic uses for the comparative and the superlative. From the same root come كامِل (complete) and كَمال (perfection). The root is broadly Semitic, but its cross-language cognates are uncertain, so none are listed here.
