#9 What's a "tat"?

A good question, one that has been asked often enough to have an easily found answer, Spoling Hupith7299. From Wiktionary:

Etymology
Origin uncertain; conjectured to be from Dutch dit voor dat (“this for that”), French tant pour tant (“equal for equal”),[1] or English tip for tap (“a blow for a blow”).
