“Hosanna” is an Aramaic word originally meaning “Help, I pray” or “Save now.” But by NT times, it came to be used as an expression of praise.

From Ps. 118:25-26

“Hosanna.” The people who were shouting praises to Jesus as he entered Jerusalem were for the most part not the same group as the group that shouted, “Crucify him” only a few days later. See commentary on Luke 23:21 and commentary on Luke 23:27.
