👉 The word "5-star" has a unique meaning within the English language, as it refers to something that is exceptionally good or extraordinary. This term was created by American author and journalist, Jack Kerouac.
In his book "On the Road," published in 1950, Kerouac coined this term for a group of individuals he met on his journey across America, which he described as being like having a five-star meal: "Those who have tasted it will say that it was a five-star meal." The phrase stuck and has since become synonymous with exceptional, extraordinary, or exceptional excellence. Here's an example sentence using the term "5-star": "I'm impressed by the quality of work on this project. It's like getting a 5-star customer service rating from your landlord."
