O.K. is the corruped version of saying All Correct. In American slang it originated from Oall Korrect until OK became the standard.

Answer 5

What is the full form of "OK"?

(V. S. Pattabhiraman, Secunderabad)

The only thing that experts are sure of is that "OK" is of American origin. How this word came into use no one is really sure. Several theories abound. According to some people, the Chocktaw tribe of American Indians used it to mean, "It is so".

Others are of the opinion that a railroad clerk coined this word. It is believed that whenever someone gave Obadiah Kelly a package to be mailed, he put his initials (O.K) on it. What it meant was that the package had been inspected and paid for.

Answer 6

OK was used during war a very long time ago....we say it as ok, but the ''o'' is supposed to be a 0 (zero) and ''k'' meant kill. it was used to tell if the place was safe or not....if it was they were saying the place is OK, meaning no one who went there has been killed. that's the reason why when we say ok, it means everything is alright, there's no problem

Answer 7

full form of OK is objection killed

Answer 8

OKAY.

Answer 9

Yes, I agree with Tina.

OK means ALL CORRECT. As far as I know one of the American presidents was illiterate and when he had to set his hand on a document he used to write the phrase ALL CORRECT as he heard it but in two letters - O and K.

Nowadays  people all over the world say this word 10 000s times in one second.

It is the most used word on the planet.

All Correct (all korrecct)
