  • Where does the phrase the bees knees originate from?
    The bee's knees is an English slang phrase The Oxford English Dictionary records the expression "bee's knee" as meaning something small or insignificant from 1797
  • The Bees Knees - English Language Usage Stack Exchange
    Google ngrams show recent (certainly since 2000) surges in usage of 'bee's knees' both in their US and UK corpora, but a brief look at examples does indeed seem to indicate almost all are in period or whimsical styles
  • etymology - If something is considered the best why is it said to be . . .
    For the same exact reason that something exciting or wonderful was the bee's knees or something cool was the cat's pajamas Slang is often catchy without specific corellation to reality
  • Singular or plural Rolls Royce of hearing aids?
    They are definitely the 'bee's knees' for nobody would ever talk of a single knee on a bee Is there a rule to guide me on this example ? EDIT upon comment The two items are similar products but not complementary in the sense of left and right or essential to buy in a set They are bought as separate items for slightly different requirements
  • Use of the word murder in slang? - English Language Usage Stack . . .
    Calling something you like "the bomb" or saying "boom-shakalaka" definitely call a different period to mind for me even though they're much more recent than this term Could you call something cool "the bee's knees" with a straight face? Does anyone call stuff "far out" if they're not doing a parody of hippies?
  • “As high as an elephant’s eye” - was it an existing figure?
    @Fattie: I'd say the song lyric usage is unquestionably echoing the same kind of "unexpected quirkiness" popularised a decade or two earlier (also very much by the entertainment industry itself, not really an "organic" usage arising from common parlance) in things like the bee's knees and the cat's pyjamas
  • Whats the origin of the saying know your onions?
    The Phrase Finder goes on to conclude: 1920s America was a breeding ground for wacky phrases (see the bee's knees) and know your onions is just another of those It's worth visiting The Phrase Finder to read the full explanation, which includes a link to other phrases that were coined in the USA
  • How did “to wish that” come to hate the present tense in the . . .
    4 TaliesinMerlin's answer seems to be the bee's knees ("business") No etymological-historical answers here (sorry), no bounty sought Just deeply intrigued by this verb, for the first time in my life, now you draw attention to its oddity Similarity to reported speech What about this: he said he ate fish on fridays he said he eats fish on
  • literature - English Language Usage Stack Exchange
    I doubt they had the ability to look this closely at a bee's knees in Shakespeare's day And even if they did, such information would be known pretty much only among the very scientifically-minded, and not to the general populace who would be his target audience
  • single word requests - Negative Comparatives Superlatives - English . . .
    Surely a Latinate solution would be "sublative" not "infralative" (Super-sub, supra-infra ) Hideous coinage, though, and not likely to be understood And one devoutly hopes that the interjection "Superlative!" will go the same way as "the bee's knees" Marking up Janus' big comment, which cannot be bettered, or even superlativised
