to a T
Meaning Exactly; properly; precisely.
Origin The expression 'to a T', is often extended to form other phrases:
'down to a T', 'suits to a T', 'fits to a T', 'generous to a T' etc.
It is also found in advertising copy like 'Golf to a tee' and 'Coffee to a tea'.
Those latter jokey versions are extensions of the alternative spellings
'to a tee' or 'to a tea'.
The original form 'to a T' is an old phrase and is first recorded in James
Wright's satire The Humours and Conversations of the Town, 1693:
"All the under Villages and Towns-men come to him for Redress; which he does
to a T."
It is difficult to determine the origin of this phrase.
It would be helpful to know the correct spelling; 'T', 'tee' or 'tea'.
'Tea' is the easiest to deal with as it appears in no early citations of
the expression and is clearly just a misspelling.
