wa-la 

The incorrect usage of the French word voila vwäˈlä, which translates to, "There it is" or "There you are." Voila is synonymous with presto, ta-da, look. Also spelled "walla."

Traditionally used by ignorant, untraveled American youth whose foreign language capacity is relegated to "taco" and "French fries."

When I surprised her with flowers, I said, "Wa-la!"
She was succinctly confused for my usage of a non-existent foreign word.

expr. (Used as an expression) can be used by people to express frustration, anger and impatience.
Phrase can be traced with a south-east Asian origin, mostly used in Singapore and Malaysia. Wa (我）Lao (老）

literally means 'my father' in Hokkien (福建话), one of the most common dialects in Singapore and Malaysian Chinese descent. (hence it is used to scold blame the entire situation)

"My dad is responsible for this!" - for Anglo people equivalent

Inf. (Informal) This phrase is used for gangsters in coffee shops around "unschooled middle-aged to old people" hanging around roadside hawkers, food courts and coffee shops. Laypeople and commoners just go Wa Lao Eh as a small mantra in their hearts when something goes wrong.

(In singlish) "Aunty, got Kopi-O or not?" Aunty (coffee shop owner) :"No more liao"

"WA LAO EH"

(For Anglo-looking people who doesn't get what the hell is this) It meant:
"Hi, do you have coffee here?" The owner replies: "Sorry, we've ran out"

"WHAT ON EARTH"

"Voila" for idiots.

"Voila" is French for "Look Here" but people who are clueless sometimes say or spell it "Wa-lah" because the French do not pronounce the "V" as clearly as English speakers would.

A - "Instead of buying Godiva chocolates, I scooped canned frosting out onto a plate. Wa-lah! Truffles!"
B - "Don't you mean 'Voila!'"
A - "That's what I said! 'Wa-lah!' Obviously you've never been to Paris, the City of Lights."
