Có thể đây không phải là ý kiến ​​phổ biến, ít nhất là trong một số nhóm, nhưng tôi thực sự rất thích Thế vận hội năm nay! Các cuộc đua marathon rất đúng trọng tâm. Đường chạy thật căng thẳng! Những ngọn đồi! Tuyệt vời Scott, những ngọn đồi đó thật tuyệt vời!

    19.32 - Well now you've done it. I need to know the origin of " Great Scott". Who was Scott and what made him great?

      19.34 - According to google:
      The phrase "Great Scott!" is an interjection that expresses surprise, dismay, or amazement. It's thought to have originated in the 1850s as a minced oath, and was popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

      19.35 - The phrase is associated with two prominent men named Scott: Scottish author Sir Walter Scott and US general Winfield Scott. Scott commanded an American army in the Mexican War and was the Union general-in-chief at the start of the Civil War. Some evidence suggests that Scott may be the source of the phrase (conceited, much?).

      19.36 - Other theories about the phrase's origin include:
      • It's a corruption of the German greeting "Grüß Gott," which means "good day" 
      • It's a polite way of saying "Great God!" in a curse-like manner, similar to what you might say if you stubbed your toe

      19.37 - The phrase is now considered dated, but it became a catchphrase for the fictional scientist Emmett "Doc" Brown in the Back to the Future franchise.

      19.44 - I'll be honest, I had it pegged as a Capt Jean-Luc Picard phrase. I fact checked myself before I said anything because my memory is truly awful from a traumatic brain injury (TBI).

    Some speculated that it was one of the toughest marathons in the Olympics with all the elevation changes!
