It is `emacs-lisp-mode', but I agree there should be an
"elisp-mode" alias. Here:

(defalias 'elisp-mode #'emacs-lisp-mode)

I don't understand what 'ooh' and 'ooh aah' means in Elisp,
do you?

But it is clear the oohs and the aahs are treated differently
by Emacs as 'ooh' gets the `font-lock-constant-face' and with
the whitespace, as you say, it doesn't.

You can evaluate 'ooh' (into ooh) but not use it in code,
'ooh aah' cannot be evaluated.
