There are some stories behind English words.
You've spent a lot of time studying how to use English in a proper way. But have you ever wondered why English speakers say some of the things they say? For example, why do they say“an easy task" is“a piece of cake"? Why do the two letters“OK" means“all right"?
Many English words and phrases have stories behind them. Sometimes these stories can help us look back into an old western history. Let's take a look at a few of the original common English words and phrases:
OK
“OK" was an American who lived in the 19th century. His name was“Old Kinderhook". In one year he was trying to take the place of the leader of his town. His supporters went around the town shouting“OK! OK!" The supporters thought their future leader was“all right". The expression caught on, and now if something is *all right", people like to say“OK".
