I must admit that even though I speak Hebrew fluently, I never would have made the link with the common phase mentioned in the text, even though I knew the meaning of the word, which is indeed:

A German boy was keen on Anagrams.  He spent weeks studying the famous quotation from Shakespeare�s �Hamlet�.

�To be or not to be: that is the question, whether �tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune.�

Eventually, by using every letter in the original quotation, he produced the following Anagram.

�In one of the Bard �s best-thought-of tragedies, our insistent hero, Hamlet, queries on two fronts about how life turns rotten.�

He showed it to his �Opa�, (his �grand-father�), who was a famous linguist.

The grand-father was not impressed.  �I will congratulate you with the German word, �Ausgezeichnet�, (�Excellent�).  But, there are conditions!�

�I have a conundrum for you.�

�One.  Give me a synonym, in English, for the word, �Excellent�.�

�Two.  At the same time, tell me the language of the ancient Arctic tribe of Eurasians from northwest Siberia, the �Kets�, who first used this word.�

The boy was nervous!  He thought, he drew a deep breath, and then he stammered to his grand-father.

�K � Opa � Ketic�.

The grand-father paused, smiled, and quietly answered: �Ausgezeichnet!� (�Excellent!�)
