词源

"late 17th cent. （originally a conjuror's word）： by jingo （and the noun sense） come from a popular song adopted by those supporting the sending of a British fleet into Turkish waters to resist Russia in 1878. The chorus ran： ‘We don't want to fight, yet by Jingo! if we do, We've got the ships, we've got the men, and got the money too’."
