You are going for 'hoi', but it really is not a word that would be used independently in English. The term is hoi polloi. It is a borrowing from the Greek and would be transliterated the [hoi] masses [polloi]. It usually refers in some sense to the masses of ordinary people. It is often misused to refer to the elite.

Hoi polloi (Greek: οἱ πολλοί, meaning "the many") is a disparaging term for "the people" or "the masses". For example: "William felt disinclined to venture into town on a Saturday because he was reluctant to mix with the hoi polloi".
The current English usage is said to originate in the 19th century. The term remains in active use today (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoi_polloi).

Apparently, it is a corruption of the greek phrase "hoi polloi". However, where "hoi polloi" means "the many" referring to the common people, "hoy falloy" is taken to mean the opposite; the upper class. In this case it is similar to the phrase "hoity toity".

You can find the definition at Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoi_polloi.

Its the phrase ''hoi polloi''. It means ''the many (people)'' meaning the masses. Greek : οι πολλοι
What is frustrating is the constant mispronunciation of the phrase. Its ''e polee'' not ''choi poloi''
