giddap
Urge the horse
Giddap is a command urging a horse to move or go faster, typically shouted while riding or driving a horse-drawn vehicle.
The word imitates the sound riders make—a sharp, forward-urging call.
Variant spellings include giddyap and giddyup: Giddap, old girl, we've got miles to go.
