OI GIOI OI!


In Vietnam, there is a saying:

 "Oi Gioi Oi

It's pronounced "Oy zoy oy"--it basically means anything between "OMG" or "Uff da" or "Oy Vey"

You can see more here; in this awesome video:


I love it. 

Tonight I thought to myself, "Oh, I need to blog--Oi gioi Oi!" 

Try it on and see how it fits ya....

How can you use it in a sentence?

For example: "We went out again and had amazing Vietnamese food...oi gioi oi!"


This is pho cuon, so delicious, grilled beef rolled in rice noodles--we sat on our little plastic chairs again and loved every minute!


I forget what this what called. Pho something, but it tasted a lot like funyuns! 
Yummy wontons and beef with a delicious gravy-esque sauce.


Imagine Vietnamese beef stroganoff, this is what this dish was!


Yes. What you are seeing you must believe. For the past two nights we have enjoyed beer on ice. 
I know, I can hear your brain saying "oi gioi oi!" 

Isn't it fun? Yes. It is. 

Okay, your homework is to use "oi gioi oi" in a sentence today, I promise you this: 
it will make you smile.

You're welcome and goodnight.

See you tomorrow/Mai gap lai!
