How many ways do you use the word “okay” in English without even realizing it?

“Let’s go out to eat!” “Okay!”
“How’s the food?” “Okay.”
“Are you okay? You sure don’t look okay.”
“No, I don’t feel okay.”
“I’m sorry I suggested that restaurant.” “It’s okay.”
“Okay, let’s not go to that restaurant again.”

The same thing happens with other words and in other languages, too — and Korean is no exception.
