A Hebrew word meaning 'good,' often used in English to express approval or satisfaction.
From Hebrew 'tov' (טוב), one of the oldest Semitic words for goodness or quality, appearing in biblical texts and later adopted into English slang through cultural and religious exchange.
This word shows how English absorbs vocabulary from languages of cultural significance—'tov' entered English through Jewish communities and has become a quirky way younger English speakers say 'nice' or 'cool,' creating a bridge between ancient Hebrew and modern slang.
