  • I have heard whichbe 's explanation in an English class, as well, and was hoping to confirm it once again on this site. Thank you! If you happen to know the etymology for the whole nine yards I would be grateful giggling words.

  • Do you know where the saying "the whole nine yards" stems from... I have heard yards of cloth to make a kilt or something to do with yards of beer... Help?

  • If I were a superhero my power would be...... the talent of a extraordinary Broadway Musical Theatre Star capable of captivating everyone's soul for moment in time. In the real world I still am a tomfoolery and sing and dance without any shame and love to rapidly click n' snap an astounding amount of photographs and create little tributes of wonder for unsuspecting people. My main passion as May 2016 slowly eases into focus is every moment I get to spend with my daughter Peyton. I wish I had a reality tv style all encompassing video  of the last 16 1/2 years as time truly has flown by and I want to remember all of those once seemingly trivial and trite moments that I don't remember forgetting.... What will I do when it no longer is just us two? I have a big personality, as does she who lives in my shadow, but I have reared her to fly far and soar....I just hope she looks back!

  • The expression  the whole nine yards has an entry in Wordnik. It is so famously opaque that it has its own Wikipedia entry . Try googling the expression within quotes. You will be buried in information.
