According to a blog I was reading this morning, the word OK became popularized by President Martin Van Buren who was born in Old Kinderhook, New York. Old Kinderhook became a nickname for him and he incorporated it into his campaign slogan, "Old Kinderhook is OK."
Now its a word used all over the world, in many different languages.
Isn't that fascinating?
