The Arabic Term:

أُسْوَةٌ حَسَنَةٌ
Transliteration
Uswatun hassanatun or Oswatun hassanatun

refers to a good or even excellent example.
As

أُسْوَة Uswah

refers to example, model or pattern.
While

حَسَن hassan

refers to everything that is good, fine, charming, beautiful etc.

And it appears in the qur'an three times once in the context of our messenger Muhammad () in surat al-Ahzaab :

There has certainly been for you in the Messenger of Allah an excellent pattern for anyone whose hope is in Allah and the Last Day and [who] remembers Allah often. (33:21)

And twice in surat al-Mumtahanah in the context of Ibraheem ():

There has already been for you an excellent pattern in Abraham and those with him, when they said to their people, "Indeed, we are disassociated from you and from whatever you worship other than Allah . We have denied you, and there has appeared between us and you animosity and hatred forever until you believe in Allah alone" except for the saying of Abraham to his father, "I will surely ask forgiveness for you, but I have not [power to do] for you anything against Allah . Our Lord, upon You we have relied, and to You we have returned, and to You is the destination. (60:4)

and

There has certainly been for you in them an excellent pattern for anyone whose hope is in Allah and the Last Day. And whoever turns away - then indeed, Allah is the Free of need, the Praiseworthy. (60:6)

There is no "Uswa e hassna".

The phrase is oswatun hasanatun أُسْوَةٌ حَسَنَةٌ and it is used in the Holy Quran in three locations 33:21 , 60:4 and 60:6.
