Hallelujah is a shout of joy, thanks, or praise, first of all to God. You will hear it in church, in Christmas songs, in Handel's famous chorus, and in gospel music. People also use it outside religion, a little loosely: when a long wait ends, someone may throw their hands up and say “Hallelujah!” meaning “at last!” Though actually that everyday use can sound , or even sharp, depending on the voice — not always holy. You can throw it out by itself, or use it as a naming word: they sang a hallelujah. Alleluia is the same cry, spelled the church-Latin way.
哈利路亞(教會用語;日常也可脫口而出,表示「終於、太好了」)
組成A learned borrowing from Biblical Hebrew הַלְּלוּיָהּ (halləlūyɔh), from הַלְּלוּ (halləlū, “praise!”) + יָהּ (yāh, “the Lord, Jah”). The pieces already mean “Praise the Lord”.
