Did you know?
The word "hello" became popular thanks to Thomas Edison, who recommended it as the standard telephone greeting in the 1870s. His rival, Alexander Graham Bell, preferred "Ahoy!" — yes, like a pirate! "Hello" wasn’t invented for the phone. It’s been around since the early 1800s, derived from words like holla, hollo, and halloo — used to call attention or express surprise.
