"HÃ¥ll tummarna!" translates better as "keep your fingers crossed" ther is not such an expression with your thumbs in english

It looks like s/he was swallowing a frog.

Now serious:
It really sounds like a simple interjection.

Yes...the meaning of 'hua' is like swallowing a frog. I could not say it better... It has to do with something you say when you did not like it, are a bit affraid,, maybee...gulp or something. If 'gulp' is a english word?
