It means, "Osh Cosh are the only ones, by golly!" "Begosh" is short for" by gosh" My now deceased grandmother slapped me once, for using the word "Golly" the first time I saw the Chattahoochee River, at the time, the biggest "creek" I had ever seen.This was about1960. She said it was a derivative of the bad word, GD, and I should never say it again, so , I am surprised BeGosh was used .And I may be wrong, altogether.It is what I have always thought it meant.Maybe the manufacturers should be contacted to explain. But anyhow, in the South, where I am from, that is what it meant growing up. And Sunday I bought a pair of "Osh Cosh " overalls at the flea market, and I love them! I am a 53 yr old woman, and I am going to "take up farming" again!There's "nuthin like um!"
