What are Hoorahs and How Do You Use Them?

"Hoorahs" is a colloquial or informal spelling of "hurrahs", which are exclamations of approval or celebration, often used to express enthusiasm or excitement. The word is derived from the French word "hurrah", which is itself derived from the Dutch word "hoera", meaning "cheer" or "huzzah".

In modern usage, "hoorahs" is often used to describe a group of people cheering or celebrating together, as in "the crowd gave three hoorahs for the home team". It can also be used more broadly to describe any kind of enthusiastic response or approval, as in "the audience gave hoorahs to the performer's stunning rendition of the song".
