Itsy bitsy spider
The itsy, bitsy spider, climbed up the water spout.
Down came the rain and washed the spider out.
Out came the sun and dried up all the rain,
So the itsy, bitsy spider went up the spout again.
?!?!?!?
Itsy-bitsy comes from the word “ici-pici”, which is used in Hungary to tiny, small things. It was taken into the US (to Hollywood) by a Hungarian film director in the early 20th century. Then he used it in everyday life and stuck to others. This is the one and only Hungarian word that was adopted to English.
true or not, who knows?!? at least we understand it… 🙂
