English came to the United States through the colonization by the British in the 17th and 18th centuries. English settlers established colonies along the East Coast, bringing the English language with them. Over time, English became the dominant language through continued colonization, migration, and cultural assimilation.
Through is a preposition.This is from the poem 'Jabberwocky' by Lewis Caroll, used in on of the 'Alice' books. It is an imaginery tale with nonsense words.
When Lewis Carrol wrote Jabberwocky, he employed a number of words which he made up himself. Some of these were what he called "portmanteau words" which contain parts of two words and combine their meanings. In Jabberwocky the verse in question goes And as in uffish thought he stood The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame Came whiffling through the tulgey wood And burbled as it came. "Tulgey" might be a portmanteau of turgid and bulgy. Or it might be just nonsense.
`Twas brillig, and the slithy tovesDid gyre and gimble in the wabe:All mimsy were the borogoves,And the mome raths outgrabe."Beware the Jabberwock, my son!The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!Beware the Jubjub bird, and shunThe frumious Bandersnatch!"He took his vorpal sword in hand:Long time the manxome foe he sought --So rested he by the Tumtum tree,And stood awhile in thought.And, as in uffish thought he stood,The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,And burbled as it came!One, two! One, two! And through and throughThe vorpal blade went snicker-snack!He left it dead, and with its headHe went galumphing back."And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?Come to my arms, my beamish boy!O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'He chortled in his joy.`Twas brillig, and the slithy tovesDid gyre and gimble in the wabe;All mimsy were the borogoves,And the mome raths outgrabe.
Lewis Carroll doesn't offer a definition for the word 'whiffling', but in his Annotated Alice, Martin Gardner says:Whiffling is not a Carrollian word. It had a variety of meanings in Carroll's time, but usually had reference to blowing unsteadily in short puffs, hence it came to be a slang term for being variable and evasive. In an earlier century whifflingmeant smoking and drinking.
'Jabberwocky' is the title of a poem by Lewis Carroll in his book Through the Looking Glass which features the Jabberwock, a ferocious mythical monster.In Tim Burton's 2010 movie, Alice in Wonderland, the creature's name has been changed from 'the Jabberwock' to 'the Jabberwocky'.

One, two! And through and throughThe vorpal blade went snicker-snack!He left it dead, and with its headHe went galumphing back."--Lewis Carrol (from "The Jabberwocky," Through the Looking Glass...; also found in Disney's Alice in Wonderland, sung by The Cheshire Cat)Some examples of onomatopoeic words are:wee(ka)boompowbangcrackwhooshzoomshrilltrilltwangziphonksplashsquirtsploosh*clapdingpingbeepblipjinglehumwaddletwangbuzzwhirthudsizzleoozesnortslurpscreechmunchchatterwheezecroakbelchmurmurhushwhisperwispwhizzchirpchortlequackmoomeowwoofhowlcliché [seriously - look it up]huhbuffoonping-pongtick-tockhiccup*see attached link for onomatopoeia in popular culture
