Are you ready for the trip to the 'Big Apple'?
'Big Apple'? What do you mean?
'Big Apple' is the nickname for New York City. Are you going to New York with us, or aren't you?
Yes, I'm going. I'm especially looking forward to visiting a special show on modern American painters there. But tell me, where did the nickname come from?
Some of the musicians of the 20s gave it the name. When they played a concert in New York in the 1920s, the musicians called it the 'Big Apple'.
Amazing. New York is such an interesting place and it even has an interesting nickname.
