Why did they choose the word fore to yell out why not some other word?
Shevy1103
There are several claims to the derivation of the word, most being contractions of common phrases.
The artillary officer's call 'beware before' prior to firing.
The call to a caddy, forward of play, whose job it was to search for the ball.
A reference to the Gaelic Faugh a Ballach!: clear the way.
Or even the prosaic 'forewarned is forearmed'.
