hohaa-jamboree-pizzazz-poobaaah

I liked the expression hohaa I recently learned. The word  "poobaaah" sounds funny but its not. Was looking in a dictionary and found some odd words: jamboree, pizzazz. Anyway living and learning.

Many who are not upto speed with vocabulary, especially those whose first
language is not English,  needs to look up the meaning of
words "muckety-muck" &  "poobaaah".  I did and learnt two words today.
