| adrr! gôsy! | ~ "Adrr! Adrr! (To the right! To the right!) ... Gosy! Gosy! Gosy! (To the left! To the left! To the left!)" -- During the French colonial period, some ox-cart drivers, upon crossing path with a vazaha, would yell this revengeful and spiteful expression, while whipping their hapless oxen. Upon hearing "Addr!", the oxen aimed to the right toward the vazaha on the sidewalk, who might begin to worry, to the merriment of the driver. Upon hearing "Gosy!", the oxen aimed to the left, resuming to the correct path. |
