The word “Jack”
One of my nemesis learning english has always been the word “jack”. Like it has a lot of uses but i just can't describe it, “lumberjack” “Jackpot” “Jack of all trades” “Jack-knife” “jack-hammer” “Jackass” “Jack-o” “Jack in, up, and off” and a laaarge list of etc. But what does jack really mean?
