Although English is not as old as Chinese, it is spoken by many people around the world every day. English speakers are always creating new words, and we are often able to know where most words come from.

Sometimes, however, no one may really know where a word comes from. Did you ever think about why hamburgers are called hamburgers, especially when they are not made with ham? About a hundred years ago, some men went to America from Europe. They came from a big city in Germany called Hamburger. They did not speak good English, but they ate good food. When some Americans saw them eating round pieces of beef, they asked the Germans what it was. The Ger mans did not understand the question and answered. “We came from Hamburger.” One of these Americans owned a restaurant, and had an idea. He cooked some round pieces of beef like those which the men from Hamburger ate. Then he put each between two pieces of bread and started selling them. Such bread came to be called “ hamburgers”. Today “hamburgers” are sold in many countries around the world.

Whether this story is true or not, it is certainly is interesting. Knowing why any word has a certain meaning is interesting, too. The reason, for most English words, can be found in any large English dictionary.

Millions of people all over the world use the word“OK”. In fact, some people say the word“OK”means all right or acceptable; it expresses agreement or approval.

11.Some people say it came from the Native American Indian tribe known as the Choctaw. The Choctaw word “oken”means the same as the American word“okay”. Experts say early explorers in the American West spoke the Choctaw language in the 19th century.

But many people doubt this. Language expert Allen Walker Read wrote about the word“OK”in reports published in the 1960s. He said the word began being used in the 1830s.12.Some foreign-b orn people wrote“all correct”as“o-l-l k-o-r-r-e-c-t”,and used the letters OK. Other people say a railroad worker named Obadiah Kelly invented the word long ago. They said he put the first letters of his names—O and K—on each object people gave him to send on the train.

13.The organization supported Martin Van Buren for president in 1840. They called their group the OK Club. The letters were taken from the name of the town where Martin Van Buren was born-Old Kinderhook, New York.

Then there is the expression A-OK. It is a space-age expression. It was used in 1961 during the flight of astronaut Alan Shepard. He was the first American to be launched into space. His flight ended when his spacecraft landed in the ocean, as planned. Shepard reported,“Everything is A-OK.”14.One story says it was first used during the early days of the telephone to tell an operator that a message had been received.

There are also funny ways to say okay. 15.These expressions were first used in the 1930s. Today, a character on the American television series, “The Simpsons”,says it another way. He says okely-dokely.

A. Some people say okey-dokey or okey-doke.

B. Still others say a political organization invented the word.

C. Therefore, it has become popular in that area from then on.

D. But many experts don't agree on what the expression means.

E. Language experts do not agree about where the word came from.

F. It was a short way of writing a different spelling of the words“all correct”.

G. However, some experts say the expression did not begin with the space age.
