One question: where does this 'Oy' come from? Is it like the 'OI!' we use in the UK?

From what I know, 'Oy" is a Yiddish exclamation.

"Oy" is Yiddish for "oh."

So, "oy vey ish mir" means "oh whoa is me."

Now, as for schlemeil... let's just so Charles is one.

Like he said, "oy" is Yiddish. And, to my knowledge, "oi" is simply a misspelling thereof, whereagainst I do my best to set a good example, but everyone continues to propogate the corruption, nonetheless...

Woah! What happened there? Can anyone actually understand what I just said? *LOL*

The movie was "The Frisco Kid" and it was "gevalt" that was defined as "$heeeit!"

e.g.: "Oy $heeeit!"
