Hi Faruque, How are you??? Welcome to the topic……………..

I've tried the words that you given:
 Offing – most probably….”protesting something” I guess.
 Oho -
 Ogre – monster, giant, tyrant.
 Splendor – brilliance, grandeur, luxury.
 Thump – punch, hit, strike.

Where did you find the word “oho”? I can’t understand the word!!!!! Good luck.
