extraordinary

  
     
  Originally an additional title given to an ambassador on a special mission, it became the custom also to attach it to the title of resident ambassadors and envoys. Now it is part of the full title of most heads of mission of the first and second class. However, British high commissioners do not have the word included in their title. Instead they are spoken of as an ‘accredited Representative and Plenipotentiary’. (Not all Commonwealth states distinguish in this way, or in others, between the titles of their ambassadors and high commissioners.)
