Jia You 加油

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jiayou


Jiayou (Chinese: 加油; pinyin: jiāyóu) is a Chinese figure of speech or idiom, meaning "be stronger!"

jiā means "to add", and yóu means oil or fuel. Therefore jiayou literally means "add oil" or "add fuel", as in refuelling a motor vehicle; by anology jiayou is used to encourage someone to put more effort into a certain task.
