oo

== English == === Etymology 1 === Representation of a long-o sound. ==== Noun ==== oo (plural oos) (obsolete) (Ω, ω) The Greek letter omega. [14th–16th c.] === Etymology 2 === From Hawaiian ʻōʻō, resembling its call. ==== Pronunciation ==== (UK) IPA(key): /ˈəʊ.əʊ/ (US) IPA(key): /ˈoʊ.oʊ/ ==== Noun ==== oo (plural oos) Any of four Hawaiian birds of the genus Moho, formerly classed with the honeyeaters and now believed to be extinct.

It never takes any subject markers. It cannot be used alone and must always be used with verb endings such as -tok, -taam, -a'chi, etc. For the future tense, a'chi can be used as a standalone word rather than a suffix completely replacing the use of a verb and having the meaning "will be". Similarly, a'ni, "might be" could possibly work in a similar fashion, replacing the presence of an explicit verb as well, although it is not normally used in sentences expressing being something. The prefix hoo- is never used with any forms of the verb "to be" (ya, oo, a'chi). To ask questions such as "Is it a/an....", see the entries for the noun suffixes -to̠ (used after consonants) and -hto̠ (used after vowels). ==== Synonyms ==== ya == Estonian == === Noun === oo (genitive [please provide], partitive [please provide]) The name of the Latin script letter O/o. == Finnish == === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /ˈoː/, [ˈo̞ː] Rhymes: -oː Syllabification(key): oo Hyphenation(key): oo === Etymology 1 === From Latin ō. ==== Noun ==== oo The name of the Latin script letter O/o. ===== Declension ===== Inflected forms are often substituted with corresponding form of o-kirjain (“letter o”) === Etymology 2 === See at olla. ==== Verb ==== oo (colloquial or dialectal) inflection of olla: present active indicative connegative second-person singular imperative second-person singular imperative connegative Alternative form: ole (standard) == Ingrian == === Pronunciation === (Ala-Laukaa) IPA(key): /ˈoː/, [ˈoː] (Soikkola) IPA(key): /ˈoː/, [ˈo̝ː] Rhymes: -oː Hyphenation: oo === Verb === oo inflection of olla: present indicative connegative second-person singular imperative second-person singular imperative connegative === References === V.
