Q is for Quid Pro Quo
Q is for Quid Pro Quo, which is a bit of a cheat since much of English comes from Latin but it's Q, which is always the tough day in the A to Z. But it is again an expression used in the original; it literally means 'something for something', translated now as the expression 'you scratch my back and I'll scratch yours'.
One of many nifty Latin expressions we commonly use in English.

English is such a mongrel language and that's why it's so colourful.
