What extra means
Something additional or more than what is usual, expected, or required; a person hired temporarily to appear in the background of a film or television scene.
Where the word comes from
From Latin *extra*, meaning "outside" or "beyond," originally an adverb and preposition. It likely developed from *exter*, the comparative form of *ex*, meaning "out." The prefix spread into Old French and eventually English, where it attached to countless words to mean "beyond the usual" or "outside of"—from extraordinary to extracurricular.
