FUYOH!!!

FU-YOH!!!!!!!!!!!
Some of u may not know the word! Its more of an expression or rather an exclamation that is almost equivalent to WOW!!! I can't pinpoint the origin , its either Chinese or Malaysian. To be on the safe side i think we will say its a Malaysian thing! Fu-yoh! i have heard that word many a time from my kids, esp no.2!!! I hear her saying that a lot , and even in MSN i see her using that word! She is abroad now in a land of cold winters with beautiful snow! ( Tho i think its spring now.... hmmmm, should be nice!) OK i am being side-tracked. Back to Fu-yoh, she uses that word whenever i tell her what we had for dinner.... bakuteh (fuyoh!) .... char siew pau( Fuyoh!) ... wantan mee (FUYOH!) ... yeah the Fu-yoh's get louder as the food climbs up the list of her fave food!
But recently one Telco ad is using that word for their promotions! And i am a bit disappointed with the usage and intonation. If u have seen the latest ad on Tv , they use that as a password to enter some cool happening spot .... but the fu-yoh is so toned down, and lack intonation that it no longer means the WOW it should mean. Ok i know its a whispered password but still cant they whisper it in style too!??? Its like saying a wow with a :( face! For me that's ridiculous. So hey if u want to use that word , make it real ...like FUUUU-YOOOOH!!!! Like that la!!!
On the plus side, i went into their website and OK lah, they did the Fuyoh justice there :) and made the Fuyoh what it should be!
Happy Fu-yoh-ing :)
E -yoh!
