        It’s so weird how Americans turned this phrase around. I looked up why a while back and apparently it was just to make it sound fancier initially and then it caught on. Either way, each to their own.

          I’m not American. Just using the saying as I’ve heard it used pretty much everywhere.

            Aye, I saw the .nl in your user tag. It’s not a fault to use Americanisms or anything, it was an interesting tidbit about the phrase
