The phrase "dot your i's and cross your t's" originates from the meticulousness required in writing, particularly in cursive script where the lowercase letters "i" and "t" need specific markings. The expression emphasizes the importance of paying attention to detail and ensuring all aspects of a task are completed properly. It has been used since at least the 19th century to convey the idea of thoroughness and precision in work or documentation.
