A wooden box that originated in the 16th century made to sound like a dying cat. Often times the cat can be removed from the box, leaving behind the skeleton of a violin.
Someone please stab that viola!

An adolescent. Derived from Shakespeare's Twelfth Night, specifically from Malvolio's description of Viola in Act 1 Scene 5: "Not yet old enough for a man, nor young enough for a boy..."
"How old is your son?"
"Oh, he's a Viola."

A lower pitch and a little larger than a violin.

An instrument played by people who aren't any good at the violin and never will be.
There's a lot more violin concerti than Viola concerti because Violas aren't as good as violins.

A big violin, invented in order to make violins feel like they're any good.
Violin 1: Hey dude, you know what's the difference between a viola and a vacuum cleaner?
Violin 2: I don't, what is it?
Violin 1: You have to turn the vacuum cleaner ON before it can SUCK

A) A sad, disappointing, and embarassing instrument played by sad, disappointing, and embarassing people. A chainsaw would fare better in a string quartet than this monstrosity.
B) An abbreviated term for "viola player" or "violist," often used casually in school orchestras
A) Person 1: "Hey, Derrick, look at that pile of shit on the ground."
Person 2: "Naw man, that's a viola."
B) Cellist: "Have you heard the violas?! They're shit!"
Violinist: "I know. I hope they don't have any solis in our next piece."
