booyakasha 

Actually it is a Jamaican patois approximation of the sound of a gunshot- you hold two fingers in the air and shout "BOOYAKASHA, BOO- BOO- BOOYAKASHA"
Rudy tink he a badman, we have to go bust him- BOOYAKASHA!

Booyakasha 

"Booyakasha" is a catchphrase that is common among the Ninja Turtles, mostly by Michelangelo.

In the 2012 TV series it replaced the classic "Cowabunga", first used in the 1987 TV series.

It is pronounced /bu ˌjɑ .kɑ ˈʃɑ / (boo-YAH-kah-SHAH).

Booyakasha 

Booyakasha comes from the Irish word "buíochas" (pronounced bwee ah kuss) which mean "glory to" "or praise be" as in "buíochas le Dia" which means "thanks be to god". Oliver Cromwell sent 1000s of Irish to the plantations in Jamaica, and a lot of Irish (or Gaelic as non Irish people know it) words made it in to Jamaican patois. Another example is "Irie" from the Irish verb "Eirigh" (pronounced "Ire - ee") meaning to get up.

Booyakasha 

Don't know what it means but Ali G didn't make it up. Rapper KRS-One shouts it out at the beginning of "Keep Their Heads Ringin'" by Dr. Dre. In 1995. Before Ali G. Probably Jamaican roots then...
