What a terrible first post...

in any case, excuse the half-wit comment, but I absolutely had to post this...


As many people may know, we Canadians say "eh". We've been doing it for over a hundred years, and it won't stop for another century or so.

Aside from that, "eh" has a ton of meanings depending on the context, among other things.

"Eh?" can be used as a substitute for the word/phrase/expression "What?".

"Eh..." can also be used as a substitute for a phrase of equivalence to being generally unamused.

There are many more instances; sometimes, it can be used in sentences like "-desu". Completely nonsensical, but absolutely needed/compulsory.


I shall end my little tangent at that.




"Eh" may have had different meanings in the past (or none at all). Essentially, I'm trying to justify my little tangent... again, please excuse it.
