It’s time for a refresher lesson on “OY”

It occurred to me after reading this article in today's New York Times that it might be time for a refresher on the proper uses of "Oy" so I pulled these helpful illustrations by Mitch Sisskind from our archive. Mitch says, and I agree: "'Oy" is one of the greatest words in any language and I've noticed that people of all backgrounds quickly pick it up and start using it. Let's take a look at some situations in which saying "Oy" is appropriate":

 

  • Oy1
  • Oy2
  • Oy3
  • Oy4
Oy4

 

Thank you Mitch!
