The word awesome is used by many to describe someone or something's particularly good qualities. It is an advancement to the also commonly used word, good. Several believe awesome's orgin came from the word awe, which is to look at with wonder. But then, others think it traced from tubular in the 1950's or 1960's. As it is a long stretch, others have dismissed the annoying, lunatic orgin, but followers have stuck with it day and night, hoping that someday the supposedly true orgin will be discovered. |
