God! Oh, my God! My Lord! Dear me!


Explanation:
It can mean:

1. a way of addressing God: "My Lord", "Lord",

2. an exclamation: "Oh, my God!" "Dear me!", "God!"

Grammar:
When you want to address a person, or call (upon) him/her, you usually add an "e" to a masculine proper name (such as John): Ivan+e = Ivane
and an "o" to a feminine proper name
Maria+o = Mario

e.g. Ivane, ela tuka (John, come here!)
Mario, ela tuka (Maria, come here!)

The word for "God" in Macedonian is "Bog". It is masculine, so you add an "e" (as shown above), but as in this case the "e" affects the final "g", it becomes "zh":

Bog+e = Bozhe

e.g. Bozhe, daj mi sila (O, Lord, give me strength)
