A sound people shout to show they don't like something — at a concert, a game, or a speech, if the crowd disagrees or is angry, they shout 'boo!' It's also the sound you make to suddenly scare someone as a joke. And separately, in casual speech, 'boo' is an way to call a boyfriend or girlfriend.
噓聲(表示不滿);(口語,稱呼另一半)寶貝
組成An imitative word — it copies a sound people naturally make, rather than coming from another word.
