Are you ready for the trip to the Big Apple?
The Big Apple? What are you referring to?
Don't you know? The Big Apple? Is the nickname for New York City. You're going to New York with us, aren't you?
Yes, I'm going. I'm really looking forward to seeing an exhibition of a modern American painter there, but I'm wondering where the nickname came from.
Some musicians in the nineteen twenties gave it the name when they played a concert in New York. The musicians called it the Big Apple.
Amazing. New York is such an interesting place and it even has an interesting nickname.
