    “halloo, what’s this?”

    “haaaallooooo” is used a lot by Germans as a slow exclamation to mean “hey idiot, what are you doing?”

      It’s used this way in American English sometimes, as in a teen issuing a counterpoint “HellOOOOoooo”

      Try actually saying “hey idiot, what are you doing?” some time. It’s very good.
