Generally we use the word O.K., What is the full form of O.K.?

Answer 1

In fact, there IS no proper "full form" for "O.K." "Okay" is a more recent invention, it is not the original or proper form.

The problem is that "O.K." was invented by New England newspaper writers as a humorous version of "Oll Korrect", that is, as based on a DELIBERATE misspelling. This sort of joke was popular in 1830s journalism. But no one would accept your writing "Oll Korrect" today. So ""O.K." is really all there is.

See the link below for more on the well-established origins of this expression --which might have been forgotten, except for its being picked up for political use by fans of Martin VanBuren who started "OK clubs" during his Presidential re-election campaign in 1840 [which he lost], playing on the humorous abbreviation and VanBuren's nickname "Old Kinderhook")

Answer 2

Okay is a term of approval or assent, often written as OK, O.K., ok, okay, okee, okie, or more informally as simply kay, k or kk. Sometimes used with other words, as in "okey, dokey". When used to describe the quality of a thing, it denotes acceptability. However, its usage can also be strongly approving; as with most slang, its usage is determined by context. It could be one of the most widely used words on Earth, since it has spread from English to many other languages.

The historical record shows that O.K. appeared as an abbreviation for oll korrect (a conscious misspelling of "all correct") in Boston newspapers in 1839, and was reinterpreted as "Old Kinderhook" in the 1840 United States presidential election. Because it is a recent word born of word play, and because it is so widely used, O.K. has also invited many folk etymologies. These competing theories are not supported by the historical written record, except in that folk and joke etymologies influenced the true history of the word. Since the 19th century, the word has spread around the world, the okay spelling of it first appearing in British writing in the 1860s. Spelled out in full in the 20th century, 'okay' has come to be in everyday use among English speakers, and borrowed by non-English speakers. Occasionally a humorous form okey dokey (or okey doke) is used, as well as A-ok.

Answer 3

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.
