Use of and lo in a sentence - English Language Usage Stack Exchange What, if any, is the right way to use "and lo" in a sentence? My basic structure is " [discussion about thing], and lo, [example of thing]", kind of like: There's a cliche about circus clowns being creepy and dangerous, and lo, last night I saw a clown violating a teddy bear
meaning - Is there a difference between lo and behold? - English . . . 2 I noticed, while going through the King James Bible, that the translators will translate a particular greek word as both "lo" and "behold " It seems like it is interchangeable to them However, I don't know if there is more meaning to the difference, and if anybody could share insight into why they would do so?
interjections - How to use the expression lo and behold - English . . . 9 Lo comes from Middle English, where it was a short form of lok, imperative of loken, "to look" (see Etymonline, Wiktionary) To behold means "to see, to look at" and comes from Old English bihaldan, "give regard to, hold in view" (compare to behalten in contemporary German)
What is a more modern variant of the interjection Lo! 13 Historically, “lo!”, isn’t expressive of any particular emotion (alas) or addressed to any particular person (dude), and it's not an all-purpose interjection (Hey) It expressly calls upon hearers to look at, to take account of, to behold what follows In contemporary English we say “look!” in pretty much exactly the same way
