Could you clarify what you mean? Perhaps you're thinking of a specific saying or idiom that includes "as" or a phrase that you'd like to know the origin of?
For example, you could be asking about:
* "As a matter of fact..."
* "As we speak..."
* "As the crow flies..."
* "As easy as pie..."
Once you provide more context, I can help you trace the origin of the phrase you're interested in. 😊
