| Mensagem: |
I had never heard this word in English, but maybe what you meant was the following: Main Entry: oy Part of Speech: interjection Definition: an exclamation of dismay or exasperation; also written oi; also called oy vay, oy vey Example: It is snowing again! Oy! Etymology: Yiddish Source: Webster's New Millennium™ Dictionary of English, Preview Edition (v 0.9.6) Does it ring a bell? It is not the same as the Portuguese "oi" though. |
