    Default A discussion of all things "-eh"

    I've noticed a lot of people seem to have a healthy fascination with using words that end in "-eh". You've all seem them, and you know who you are, you zany individuals!

    Meh. Feh. Bleh. Leh. Where'd they come from, I wonder? Aren't they all really just one and the same? I personally assume that something like "meh" is taken to mean "whateva", and while a word like "bleh" might be defined as "ugh", couldn't *that* also be defined as "whateva" in a tone of disgust?

    I took it upon myself to create a new "-eh" word: Xeh. Yeah. Xeh. Take the following examples:

    I go back and capitalize or add puncutation alot. Meh. Give me money.
    I go back and capitalize or add puncutation alot. Xeh. Give me money.
    Am I onto something? I'm onto something, I know it. Discuss.

    And while you're at it, start using "xeh" in your vocabulary. Thanks, and have a good day.

    Meh fits when pronounced. Meh sounds like someone is showing disdain.

    You spelled punctuation wrong and used 'alot' in the wrong context.

    Xeh.

    Kweh!

    And "xeh" just doesn't sound right.

    [q=pureghetto]You spelled punctuation wrong and used 'alot' in the wrong context.

    Xeh.[/q]That was actually King Bahamut from another thread here in General Chat. I don't use "meh" myself, so I had to find another example. Trust me, I'd never spell anything wrong.

    Oh, yeah, forgot about "kweh".

    And "xeh" is pronounced "zeh", like "xenon" or "xenophobia". Yeah. Just so the masses know!

    I don't like X. It doesn't have it's own sound Why not just call it zeh? Besides, "meh" really does sound like it's meaning

    Bleh, Meh, Geh, Heh, Xeh. Xeh is the odd one out, it somehow requires more effort and takes away the helpless feel of it all.

    Oh, come on now, it doesn't take any more effort to say "xeh" than "meh" or "feh". It's all the same amount of letters.

    I got meh from the Spimpsons, not from the internet. But the internet probably got it from the Simpsons too at one point. Once I saw how many people used it I realized what a dorky word it was and stopped.

    Xeh can be used to express question, like something wierd just happens and you respond 'Xeh??'
