Daily English expression: my head's off to you


Hello everybody and welcome back to E-cubed. Today we have a very nice expression. Actually, it's a very old expression but we still use it today. The expression is: "My hat's off to you"....
what does this mean? this means "congratulation", "wow, that's amazing, i'm happy for you", "i'm proud of you", that's great. that's the expression. A long time ago in the 1920, 1930 in America, everybody weared a hat. That's a type of hat. but we weared a hat so if we wanted to show respect to some body, we'll take our head off. Even nawaday, in America, if you go to a baseball game or a football game, people may be wearing a hat. But when they play the national anthem. .... people take their hat off to show respect. Probably you do the same thing in your country. Let's check out the dialog. 
- My English is getting better Shane!
- That's great, have you been doing DD?
- I was 100% correct on the last daily Dictation.
- My hat's off to you.
Actually a lot of you have been getting better and better on Daily Dictation and may hat's off to you,. Congratulation! i respect that. That's outstanding. Keep up the good work and if you have to say congratulation to anybody, if you want to show respect, appriciation, honor to somebody. You can say: hey, my hat's off to you, congratulation, that's great, that's wonderful. i'll see you tommorrow.
