Only 10 more klicks to Saigon!
maybe it's more easier when i rewrite the above sentence that'' Only 10 more kilometers to Saigon''
Klick is army slang for kilometer.The term became popular in the 1960s among American soldiers in Vietnam.It probably came about because soldiers thought it sounded cool.
Let's try another example.....
..................'''WAIT A MOMENT''................................
How long exactly are u asking s.o to wait when u say ''wait a moment''?
the moment is a medieval(very old) unit of time equal to 1.5 minutes.
