Having actually attended a French school for a few years, I can say with authority that this word:
“Voila,” is pronounced with a V in the beginning of the word. That’s a V. Voila, not a W.
Why everyone seems to go for the W is beyond me!
Just one of those quirky, contagious mistakes, I guess.
So, it’s Voila!
It means: “There it is” or “There you are.”
As when you do a magic trick and it’s successful:
you could say, Voila! (I did it, it’s done! Here it is!)
(For pronunciation of Voila, you know where to go: your phone, of course.)
