美语中，一些感叹词的意义跟字典上的解释不尽相同，要在日常生活中才能体会到。让我们看看以下几个例子：
Oh的字典意义是“嗬；哦；哎呀”，表示惊讶、恐惧等。但将这个词连起来用，却是“糟了、坏了”的意思，比如：
1.Oh,oh,the Ozone hole is back!糟了，臭氧层的穿孔又出现了！
2.Oh,oh,my boss has nt for me.坏了，老板叫我去一趟。
Whew的字典意义是“唷”，表示惊讶、失望、厌恶，常含诙谐之意。在日常生活中，常能听到人们在遇险或重活以后用这个词，比如：
1.Whew,that piano was heavy!It took eight of us to move it to the next room.
咻，那架钢琴真重！我们八个人才把它抬到隔壁房间。
2.This morning on my way to work,a deer jumped out right in front of my car.I misd it by a hair，whew!
今天早上在上班路上，一只鹿突然窜到我的车前，我差一点点就撞上了，咻！
Huh的字典意义是“嘿”，表示疑问、蔑视。日常生活中，常用来表示难言之隐，比如：
1.You agreed that I could have your car if I did this,right?
你说好的，如果我做了这件事，你就会把你的车给我，是吧？
还有一个字典还没收入的词———hmmm，也常用来表示这个意思：
2.If there's no objection,shall we say we'll meet every day for an hour?
如果没有异议，我们是否能定下来，每天开一小时碰头会？
< hour a day.Isn't that a bit too much?这……每天一小时，是不是有些太多了？
Duh在英语字典里是表示不理解的一种感叹词；在中英词典里表示犹豫、不快等。但在日常生活中，这个词越来越多地用来表示一种轻蔑，特别是认为某人说了很愚蠢的话后，当然也用于自嘲：
1.The new governor said in his inaugural speech,everyone has to eat,duh.
新州长在就职演说中说，每个人都需要吃饭，多新鲜啊！
3.Last night I went to a benefit concert,thinking it was free.Then at the door there was this ticket person,who told me
that it was a concert to rai money for the poor and everyone was expected to donate,and it was writ-ten right on the ticket in my hand,duh.
昨晚，我去了一个募捐音乐会，以为是免费的。结果到了门口让收票的挡了，说是音乐会是为穷人募捐的，所以每个人都应当解囊认捐。其实我手中的票上写得清清楚楚，真是的。
1whoa:whoa是西部牛仔经常说的话，
Cowboys say"whoa"when they want their hors to slow down.
当牛仔说whoa后，他们的马就会慢下来。
所以whoa的第一个意思就是：a command to stop嘿，慢点。例句：
Whoa,don't put so much detergent into the washing machine!慢点，别往洗衣机里倒太多的洗衣粉！
Whoa还有另一层意思：an expression of surpri表示惊奇。
例句：Whoa!You're scaring me.啊！你吓到我了。
2.Gee
Gee可以使你说的话带有遗憾、惊奇的色彩。
""is an interjection that shows surpri,wonder,or uncertainty.Sometimes when people "(in a long, drawn out fashion)they are just pretending that they are surprid.
Gee放在句子里，可以表示惊奇或是怀疑。可要是拖长了调，说geeeeee，就表示说话的人在假装惊奇。
例句：His car broke hat's too bad!I was really looking forward to Professor Johnson's class!
约翰逊教授的车坏了吗？（假惊奇）啊，太糟糕了，我是多么想听他的课啊！
3duh
\də,usually with prolongedə\
When someone says something that you think is very obvious,or asks you a stupid question,you can say"duh".
直白来说，duh就是“废话”的意思。
例句：Duh!The lights are on and there are people inside.废话！灯开着，屋里当然有人了。
4Oh,Boy
"Oh,Boy!"is a common American expression that really has nothing to do with boys at all.不必问美国人为什么不说"Oh,girl"或者别的，因为这么用就是一种习惯，大家都不知道原因。
Oh boy可表示高兴和兴奋的情绪。
例句：Oh,Boy!Look at that.There is someone lling cotton candy.I love cotton candy.
太好了！看那里。有人在卖棉花糖。我喜欢吃棉花糖。
Oh boy既可以指让人高兴的事，也可以指you are concerned or dismayed about something让人担心的事，这完全取决于说话的语气。
例句：A:Guess what?We first got a flat tire,and now my cell phone is dead.
\你猜怎么了?先是我们的车胎爆了，而后我的手机又没电了。
B:Oh,boy!唉!
5oh well
"Oh well"is u to show mild regret.We also u it to tea people or pretend that you are upt.Oh well就是表示有点遗憾，或者是以玩笑的口吻假装不安的情绪。
例句：Did you hear,the football team won't make the playoffs this year.Oh well,that's too bad.
听说了吗，足球队今年不能参加决赛。唉，有点糟糕。
例句：You're not going to give me any chips?(teasing)Oh well,I guess I won't be able to give you a ride home.
你不给我薯片？（开玩笑）唉，那我只好不让你坐我的车回家了。
