Can anyone tell me a few polish words that would be said in celebration, such as:
Yay!
Victory!

Is it true that booing is a rather new, English-influenced way of expressing audience disapproval? Earlier it had always been whistling (wygwizdaæ kogo¶), but since Americans whistle their approval, the Pole had no choice but ma³powaæ....
Also the jeering boooo in a big crowd can sound like the Polish uuuuuu of approval. Can anyone authoritatively sort this out, please?
