Туз по-английски называется «ace», что, в свою очередь, происходит от старофранцузского слова «as» со значением «единица»...
Исторически туз в игральной колоде имел самое низшее значение и обозначался знаком 1, однако со временем он, наоборот, стал доминирующей картой. А в таких играх, как покер или блэкджек, игрок сам может выбирать значение туза — как самое старшее или как единицу. Большое влияние на продвижение туза вверх оказала французская революция — он стал символизировать главенство обычного человека над королями. Помимо карт, слово «ас» стало применяться и к людям, достигшим высшей степени мастерства в своей профессии.
