In 1839 boston newspapers, for some reason know only to themselves, used “oll korrect” instead of “all correct” and OK allegedly came from there

There are plenty of other claims made about its origins though.

actually , in old wars back in 1800s or something , when the troops returned each day

they would count the dead people and if there are none

they would hang a sign saying ( 0 . Killed )

thus the term ( O.K)
