According to Danylko,the phrase Lasha tumbai is a Mongolian phrase for "whipped cream", "milkshake", or "churned butter".[6] It was later alleged, though, that there are no such words in Mongolian and the catchphrase bears no meaning at all. There have been allegations that the words were chosen due to their phonetic resemblance to "Russia Goodbye", allegedly a reference to the 2004–2005 Orange Revolution.[7]
