Etymology
The word oomph comes from a noisy, playful sound umph that people used to make for a strong push or hit, like in cartoons, and a helpful way to remember it is to think of the sound 'oomph!' as a quick burst of force. That's why oomph now means extra energy, power, or an exciting, attractive quality.
