10 hrs confidence: 
| hoo yah! hooray Explanation: actually according to my husband the military exclamation is "who ha" but nontheless, hooray is a confident exultation. It cannot be used as a greeting though. I still do not understand why it cannot be left alone..there is really no clear equivalent in italian. |

| hoo yah! siii!!! / signorsì, siii!!! Explanation: "siii!!!" mi sembra adatto ad un grido di gruppo. Magari per richiamare il militaresco potrebbe andare una composizione con **signorsì, siii!!!** ? ti propongo anche *e vai!!!* che esprime sia incitamento che esultanza, soprattutto con !!! multipli, ma con questa espressione perdi il "militare" oppure mi viene in mente un *avanti tutta!* che richiama la navigazione |
