Could you please tell us where are these phrases from? I can’t figure them out! But here I tell you, “ni da ye” is frequently used by Beijing natives to express anger or impatience. It is an informal and rude usage. So, your friend has been probably fooled by ohers.

I guess tou ni might be a name.

"tounidaye" could be Tou Ni 大爺.

But here I tell you, “ni da ye” is frequently used by Beijing natives to express anger or impatience.

Can you write the characters for that?

[Han-tiger]

The characters for ni da ye is "你大爷"。

[roddy]

你大爷. There's a Chinese article on it here, but I don't know if it's any good, it's just what popped up on Google.

Where did you see this phrase?

[Han-tiger]

I couldn’t agree more with the article you recommended, roddy. “你大爷” is a phrase that prevails in the daily oral communication of our Beijing natives.

Maybe 一头你大爷, 二头你大爷, 三头你大爷, and so on.

[Han-tiger]

Yeah! I think so. gato. The OP's friend has been fooled.

Perhaps it works like the English "ONE Mississippi, TWO Mississippi, THREE Mississippi...."? Just a guess
