The ellipsis is used to indicate that something has been left out. In this case what would be left out would be the question mark.

By the way, did you know this term was derived from the Greek navy during World War I or World War II? It comes from the words "ola kala," which in Greek mean all is well. The sailors used this secret signal to indicate all was well with a particular war plan. |
Spell the word either
okay or
OK.
Your explanation for the word's etymology is clever, but the word's origin is American, not Greek.
