Can I Get A Hoya?

The slang term “Can I Get A Hoya?” is an expression commonly used to ask if someone can borrow or have something. It is often used casually among friends or acquaintances.

This phrase is derived from the word “hoya,” which is a phonetic spelling of the word “hour.” It originally became popular in African-American Vernacular English (AAVE) and has since spread to mainstream slang. It is used to inquire about the availability of something, either as a request or as a way to confirm whether something is accessible.

Examples:
1. “Hey, can I get a hoya? I left my charger at home.”
2. “Can I get a hoya real quick? I need to use your bathroom.”
