"Whoa!"

Answer:

OMG

Hint:

This acronym is often used in texts to express shock or surprise, similar to how someone might exclaim "Oh my gosh!" in conversation.

Explanation:

"Whoa!" is an exclamation of surprise, and "OMG" is a modern shorthand for the same reaction—short for "Oh my God." The clue plays on how both phrases express shock or amazement, just in different styles. While "whoa" is more casual and older, "OMG" became popular with texting and internet culture as a quick way to say the same thing.
