Why does santa say ho?
Santa's famous "Ho, Ho, Ho!" refers to his deep belly laugh."It is the sound he makes when he laughs. It was originally HAHAHA instead of HOHOHO. Santa is considered a jolly man saying HO...HO...Ho!"My further question is who first had Santa say, "Ho ho ho!" and when? Could "ho" originally have had a meaning beyond just expressing a jolly laugh, since he is also considered Saint Nick? Could "ho, ho ho!" be a short version of what the Bible in the book of Revelations writes the heavenly creatures say, "Holy, holy, holy"?
