A person who is exalted or elevated to a higher position or status; someone who receives exaltation.
Formed from exalt + -ee suffix (denoting the recipient of an action). Following the pattern of employee, refugee, and trainee, -ee creates nouns for people who undergo or receive the action.
The -ee suffix is underrated—it flips the perspective by focusing on who receives the action rather than who performs it, which is why 'exaltee' is the opposite perspective from 'exalter'!
