At what point does "Oh, oh, oh" go off? Full lineup of oohs

Wherever we are, sad oohs and perky ahs are heard everywhere. Sometimes this can not even be noticed, because it happens as if by chance. But in other situations, such manifestations of states are expressed very impulsively. And, as they say, there is a hole in the old woman too, the grandmother sits on a bench, and when she tries to get up, she suddenly bends at the waist and exhales: “Oh, oh, oh, the tailbone fell ill again.” Or a hefty fellow ran with all his might, stumbled and immediately gasped, clutching his sprained leg. And, after watching such moaning people, the question comes to mind: "But, probably, these jerky sighs are heard not only from pain, depression and indignation, but also from other emotional states?".

What does "oh" mean? Delving into the meaning

Who hasn't read the fairy tale and watched the cartoon for children "Oh and Ah"? Whoever you ask, everyone remembers two neighbors who differ from each other in their way of life and temper. One is a merry fellow and an optimist, and the other is a pessimist-sufferer. So, from this plot it is clear that, unlike Aha, Oh usually symbolizes:

1. The state of despondency - "Oh, not life, but hard labor."
2. Negative attitude to work - "Oh, you plow like a horse, tirelessly."
3. Pity, plaintivity and indignation - Oh, how I'm tired of everything."
4. Sadness, annoyance and regret - "Oh, sad at heart".
5. Woe, misfortune and suffering - "Oh, woe is woe to me."

But oohs are not always so miserable. Sometimes these exclamations are used in jokes, for example: “Oh, oh, oh, why didn’t I go deaf (dead)” … And in some cases even from admiration: “Oh, how lovely!”

And there are oohs and enthusiastic

Yes, it is in delight and surprise that oohs often erupt, but they are pronounced in a completely different tone and give everyone fun:

• Oh, how good are peas.
• Oh, that's glorious gunpowder.
• Oh, oh, oh, what a handsome man!
• Oh, yesterday was bad, but today be he althy.
• Oh, and a delicious cake.
• Oh, what a beauty!

Also oohs chase those who can be scolded: "Oh, Alyoshka and a naughty one. Oh, this Zinka. Oh, and children." Another thing is from the aching feeling of love: "Oh, my heart hurts. Oh, the buffoon fell in love."

If you can't take a breath, just do oh

I would like to note that Okha's groans also roll in the ice holes in winter, where people in swimsuits jump at sub-zero temperatures. Also in gyms, where weightlifters lift iron bars and, taking more than a hundred kilograms on their chests, exhale furiously: "Oh!" Jumpers and runners, wrestlers and figure skaters in critic altheir moments during the difficult execution of the exercise can suddenly release a loud oh for everyone. Well, an ordinary person in his entire long life spews so much oh, oh, oh, that if you count them all, you get a total of ten years.
