Ole Miss means Old Mississippi. "Ole Bessy been giving milk for 10 years now. Time to turn her into steaks." Or "Ole Miss is okay if you can't go to a real college."

Hello..
Ole is a word that comes from Arabic that means Bravo.. you say it during Bull runs to encourage a Matador to do a good job.. some Spaniards use it ( once in a while) to show that you´ve done a good job.. They Say , " Ole, muy bien" ( not all Spaniards say this but like i said that's what that means.. so you can tell your kids what it means.. and hopefully they will get a better understanding of OLE!
Take care.....

Olé is used in soccer or any sport where one person performs a great feat of skill and then screams Olé!! to humiliate the person they did it against. It is more commonly used in soccer when someone achieves a nutmeg or panna
"You should have seen my piece of skill, I put the ball through this guys legs and just screamed Olé afterwards"
"I Olé d him to **** today"

Ole comes from Arabic( wallah) literally means by God , it is equivalent to Bravo, it is an encourging word that Arabs use even today when admiring or encourging someone or something , the word in Arabic has different variation (ya allah \ allah \ wallah).
