Etymology
The word 'wow' originated in the early 20th century, first appearing in print in the 1910s. It was likely derived from the exclamation 'ow', which expresses pain, and was adapted to express wonder and excitement instead. Initially, 'wow' was used mainly in informal contexts but quickly gained popularity in broader vernaculars, particularly among younger generations and in contexts such as performances, sports, and entertainment. The transformation from an exclamation to a verb 'to wow' occurred as the term became more commonly associated with experiences that elicit strong positive reactions. By the late 20th century, 'wowing' became synonymous with achieving impressive feats in various fields, including art, technology, and business, often used in marketing to describe a product's impact on consumers.
