Yay or Yea? (1 Viewer)

[gianmarco]

You need to type out that you're excited about something and want to show that exclamation.

Do you use the word yay or yea?

I'm sure we can all agree that "yeah" is completely wrong no matter what in this context so it's not included in my pole.

 

[That one guy]

Is this one of those "how do you spell word x" type things? Because I use both yay and yeah (2 different words) and have never seen/used yea...

 

[FUBAR]

Yeehaw

 

[jamny]

yeah!

 

[gianmarco]

yeah!

X

 

[El Floppo]

I have no joy.

 

[johnnycakes]

That's great that it went according to plan for once. Don't expect a medal.

 

[gianmarco]

I'm talking about the word when saying something like "XXX, team" or "XXX, they are having a baby!" where XXX rhymes with "hay".

 

[Dark Matter]

Chi Chi get the Ya-Yo!

Yeah down

who's on which side- need to know before I vote.

 

[dozer]

Yeah is the lazy version of yes.

 

[jon_mx]

yeah!

Yeah, that is some

 

[heckmanm]

"Yea" is for when you're walking through the valley of the shadow of death and stuff. Or voting in an old-timey meeting.

 

[FUBAR]

Yehweh?

 

[Lester Burnham]

Yee Howdy!

 

[netnalp]

I don't think I use "yea". I use "yeah" most.

"YEAH!" = "YES!" for times when something good happens.

yeah? = "yes?" = "what?"

"YAY!", I don't really use unless I'm trying to imitate a little kid, I'm being sarcastic or not being serious.

ex. "Yay!.... another 3 and out.

 

[Serenity Now]

Yea is to signify Yes, as in voting (yea or nay)

Yay is an exclamation

Yeah is an affirmation

I'm sure we can all agree that "yeah" is completely wrong no matter what in this context so it's not included in my pole.

I don't agree with the bold.

I'm sure we can all agree that "pole" is completely wrong when referencing a poll.

I use yea and yeah as the same thing to say yes. Yay is a cheer.

It's Yeah, not Yea, and you need to add Aye, Aye-aye, and Aye-aye Cap'n to the poll.

I'd like to add that "ya" sounds like Yah, and rhymes with saw.
