What is the origin of 'hey presto'?
The phrase "hey presto" likely originated from the incantation "presto change-o" used by magicians during performances. It is thought to have derived from the Italian word "presto," meaning "quickly" or "immediately." Over time, "hey presto" became a popular expression in English-speaking countries, particularly in the context of magic shows.
