Recall hearing somewhere that booya is an onomatopoeia from urban slang, supposedly the sound made by the discharge of a shotgun round. [[User:Scott Sanchez|knoodelhed]] 16:16, 12 August 2007 (UTC) |

Junk - no Google confirmation. —User:Davodd
- Eh? I admit I'd never heard of it either, but here's one good query: http://www.google.com/search?q=booya+recipe Of course, this page should probably also mention that booya is a common guttural utterance by marines, frat boys, etc. —Mulad 17:12, 25 Feb 2004 (UTC)
Booya & Marines?. —User:lkarayan
- I think this is a common mistake, isn't it supposed to be _HOO-AH_ as evidenced here: http://www.dix.army.mil/PAO/post03/post071803/HistoryOfHooah.htm —Levon Karayan 10:12, 25
- According to R. Lee Ermey on his History Channel show "Mail Call" it seems to be more like "OO-RAH" or "UH-RAH!"Pat Payne 16:57, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
List of catch phrases
I removed the listing of people who use "Booya" as a catch-phrase, because in no case will a link be disambiguated using this list. (eg. those pages tend to link to this one... to disambiguate, are we supposed to link to the original article from itself?) Disambiguation pages aren't for generic list-making. Either the list should be made an actual article detailing the use of Booya as a catch phrase, and all the backlinks for that should be moved to the article, or do something similar with Wiktionary, or leave the list off. --Interiot 17:27, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
