In Hebrew it is Walla(as in the search engine)  and in Arabic ‘Wallah’.  Just because you are ignorant of his Arabic language skills doesn’t mean you should parade it on this site.   FLT TYERS!!!

It comes from the French language and means there you are: used to bring somebody's attention to something, especially in order to elicit appreciation or approval   Now, for someone who invented the language and whose ancestry hails from Spain, I find this confusing!   Nev Gosling Greater vancouver, BC   Deb,   There are a half-dozen 'weaves' that have been around from before Torill & I were born (Although Dr. D invented them).  Her claim to fame was in her crochted-style tying, with extended bodies. http://www.kaliningrad-fishing.ru/zhur-sr/008-2005/statja-005-1.html   She too faced the problem of weaving beyong the bend of the hook for making extended bodies.  So she crochted the tail extension and wellah! Voilà   I met her in Denver at the ISC show years ago (was there with Mustad).  Very nice lady.  Had all the guys going, too, as she is pretty.  Not me, though. But Buggs, well, he's a rabbit.   DonO
