\wō, hō, hwō\
whoa是西部牛仔经常说的话吗?没错,Cowboys say "whoa" when they want their horses to slow down. 当牛仔说whoa后,他们的马就会慢下来。所以whoa的第一个意思就是:a command to stop 嘿,慢点。
例句:Whoa, don't put so much detergent into the washing machine! 慢点,别往洗衣机里倒太多的洗衣粉!
Whoa还有另一层意思:an expression of surprise 表示惊奇。
例句:Whoa! You're scaring me. 啊!你吓到我了。
