  • Do Brits really say "Yeah" all the time?

    I'm watching Skins.

    The guys always say stuff like "Quit ****ing about, yeah?" or "Sorry, yeah?"

    Is this how it is? It's bizarre.

      Some do, typically those in movies and TV shows and, in reality, those in the Maritimes.

      It seems as though "Yeah" is the British version of "Eh". To my knowledge, "Eh" predates "Yeah" in use.

          I'd wager you don't notice a lot of things, Kid.

                What do you mean, like when you want someone say whether they agree with you or not?

                  Like if someone says something stupid or confusing, the reply is a quizzical "Eh?"

                      No it's that many times more offensive, the same as Wiglafs. There's a difference between cool and offensive.

                        The fact that you find turbans offensive is offensive.

                          Doesn't everybody use "eh" in the same manner as "huh"? I thought the Canadian use of eh was distinguished only by using it in other contexts.

                          My neighbor might say "So your backyard rink is finished eh?" and it doesn't sound Canadian at all to my ears.

                              No they use it like, "Pass the bacon, eh"
