jonathan.oakley Re: what it means? 06.02.09, 22:51 We use this slang word to attract someone's attention. It is similar to "hey." For example, you your friend in the distance: "Oi! Over here." Though "oi" may have derived from the Greek word "Hoi Polloi" meaning the masses or common people and so on. This is generally accepted as being a derogatory term. Odpowiedz Link Zgłoś
