I worked with a lady named Heidi. I'd always greet her with a hearty, "Heidi hi!" If I was feeling musical it was, "Heidi Heidi Heidi hi. Hoddy hoddy hoddy ho."

I'm on a writer's forum, and some time ago, one of our Australian members was saying that mall Santas were told to stop saying Ho, ho, ho, and to say Ha, ha, ha instead, because "they" were afraid women might take offense at the former. But it was pointed out to "them" that HA-Ha-Ha would make it look like Santa was laughing at people, instead of with them. Anyway, this Aussie member asks what's so offensive about Ho-Ho-Ho? I informed her, as delicately as possible, that in America, a "ho" is slang for a prostitute or a woman with loose morals. Got the TMI response. Gotta remember, English isn't the same in other countries.
I spent six months in Australia when I was 9, and I can tell you, we had to get used to speaking Australian English. Mom was such a dunderhead that she'd send us to the store for something, because she couldn't be understood by the Aussie store clerks. She's ask for a half of something, and they'd reply, "What's a half?" Before decimalization, it wasn't a halfpenny that was the smallest Australian coin (in value--in size it was actually larger), it was the ha'penny (pronounced hey-penny).
