I wish I knew more about the etymology of ''w00t''. It's unique in that, unlike slang like ''l33t'' and ''j00'', ''w00t'' has no obvious non-slang equivalent.

''l33t'' means "elite". ''j00'' means "you". ''w00t'' means "yay".
 
''w00t'' is quite certainly an attitudinal, but it should translate to something which is not quite correct Lojban. I'd say that Lojban for ''w00t'' could be '''o6'''. It's pronounced ''oxa'' which sounds like '''o'a'''. --[[jbocre: rab.spir|rab.spir]]
 
''j00'' could be ''d0'', but frankly I don't think there is a serious overlap between people who say these things and people who speak l0jb4n. Some of us even use ''zo'o'' in instead of '';-)''. - mi'e. [[jbocre: .kreig.daniyl.|.kreig.daniyl.]]
 
I always thought ''w00t'' had someting to do with ''what''. --[[User:tsali|tsali]]
 
''as in'' ki6''?''
 
jKn'= Just Kidding  ... 9o = NO!!!!!!!
 
ehmz.... "woot means yay"? no way. "woot" stands for "we pwned ('have beaten') the other team".

i remember reading somewhere of the etymology of "w00t!".  i believe it said it originated with "woo hoo".  i think there was more to it, but my love for the halflings weed has dulled my memory.  ;-)

'w00t' is a hacker morph of the word 'root' - referring to the exlamation that they had gained root access to a computer they were hacking.
