It's what Snoop Dog says when he go pee. I gotta go 'piezzo you shizzle!'

Piezoelectricity is the ability of crystals to generate a voltage in response to applied mechanical stress. The word is derived from the Greek piezein, which means to squeeze or press. The piezoelectric effect is reversible in that piezoelectric crystals, when subjected to an externally applied voltage, can change shape by a small amount. The deformation, about 0.1% of the original dimension in PZT, finds useful applications such as the production and detection of sound, generation of high voltages, electronic frequency generation, microbalance, and ultra fine focusing of optical assemblies.

i could not locate piezzo with two z'2, but piezo with one z is a very popular google response. here is what i found...
Piezo Electricity is an observed phenomenon in some crystals - the generation of surface charges in response to applied stresses.

Piezo is short for piezoelectric crystal. Some materials, quartz for example, produce a charge in response to mechanical stress.

Piezo is short for piezoelectric device. This is a device, such as a quartz crystal, that develops a voltage potential across it when it is subjected to compression. A crystal microphone is such a device.

a piezo is a small speaker (tweeter) they produce high frequency sounds the unusual thing about piezo's is they have no magnet, they operate by flexing a crystal and setting up vibrations to create acoustic energy

A Piazza is a city square in Italy. Maybe it is something like that
