Sabe a História do tudo "O.K" Everything is ''O.K"

One of the stories about the origin of "O.K." is about an old Indian chief with a very strange name. The Americans were noa able to say it, but it was something similar to "O.K.". This Indian was very friendly and accepted everything the American colonists said. So, every time they wanted to say everything was correct, they said it was "O.K.".

But experts who study old Greek texts have another theory. Hundreds of years ago, every Greek teacher wrote "Ola" ( Everything) "Kala" (Good) or simply "O.K" at the end of any school paper which didn´t have any mistakes.

From ancient Greece to America and from there to the rest of the world. At least the world agrees on something - two little letters!
