What is the origin of the idiom "make a go of something" and when to use it?
The idiom "by degrees" has a long history and can be traced back to Middle English. It originated from the Old French phrase "par degrés," which means "by steps" or "gradually." It is often used when discussing personal or professional growth, the development of relationships, or the evolution of circumstances over time.
