All things Western and more.
Did you know, the term fair play came from William Shakespeare?
And from which piece? Have a great day, hugs, Valerie
The Tempest and others. I'm going to have to start including the play since that question pops up regularly.Hugs received and returned.
If in doubt I will always guess Shakespeare - and be right more often than not.
Definitely:)

Thanks, Yvonne:) And you.
Nope Sandra, I actually didn't! 🙂 But, that's a pretty cool fun-fact. 👍🏻

I wonder from which play?
He used it in The Tempest and others.
I'm not a Shakespeare fan. Have never read a single thing by him (hangs head in shame). So of course, I had no idea, but it's great trivia.
There's a lot of his works, I'm sorry to say, I'm not familiar with.
Another term I did not know originated from the Bard.
He's certainly responsible for much of our language isn't he, Jamie.
What a genius.
Indeed:)
frankie....that gooze izza show off...him did knot noe that ~~~~~;) ☺☺♥♥
Ha. Ha. He probably doesn't:)
I did not know that, but I do remember studying the play in a class many years ago :) hugs
That sounds like it was fun.
I didn’t know that
Hey, Adam. How are you and Daisy?
Learn something new everyday
That's sure the truth:)
I wonder how long it took his expressions and phrases to become common usage?
That's a good question, Annalisa. Can you imagine your sayings living through time like that?
Nope!
