People spelling "yeah" as "yea".
Does anyone not like it when people write "yeah" as "yea"? I'll see people write "yea" when they mean "yeah".
"Yea" is a different word with the same meaning as "yeah", but a different pronunciation. "Yea" is pronounced like "yay". "Yea" is an old fashioned word.

Aye.
Self-referential signatures are for people too boring to come up with more interesting alternatives.
Re: People spelling "yeah" as "yea".
My favorite affirmative is [ja(ː)] which I write as yah or ja depending on what mood I'm in and how certain I am that the reader won't read the ⟨j⟩ as /dʒ/. I don't write it as ya though, even though some people do, as ya to me signifies [jə(ː)], which of course is a reduced version of you.

Re: People spelling "yeah" as "yea".
I have no problem with "yea" although I prefer "ye" or even, in my more adventurous moods, "y".
Re: People spelling "yeah" as "yea".
I don't have "yah" in my speech, but I do have "nah" for the negative.Travis B. wrote: ↑Sun Oct 06, 2024 3:24 pm My favorite affirmative is [ja(ː)] which I write as yah or ja depending on what mood I'm in and how certain I am that the reader won't read the ⟨j⟩ as /dʒ/.

Re: People spelling "yeah" as "yea".
I also have nah, which I think is much more common than yah. For instance, my mother, who grew up in Kenosha, was not familiar with yah before she came to Milwaukee, and when I worked at one job with some people from elsewhere they noticed my use of yah as kind of odd (up to that point I did not think anything unusual about yah ─ to me it was just a pronunciation variant on yeah).Space60 wrote: ↑Sun Oct 06, 2024 5:21 pmI don't have "yah" in my speech, but I do have "nah" for the negative.Travis B. wrote: ↑Sun Oct 06, 2024 3:24 pm My favorite affirmative is [ja(ː)] which I write as yah or ja depending on what mood I'm in and how certain I am that the reader won't read the ⟨j⟩ as /dʒ/.

Re: People spelling "yeah" as "yea".
Are "yeah" and "nah" the only examples of the TRAP vowel in absolute-final position?
Re: People spelling "yeah" as "yea".
You have TRAP in those words??Glass Half Baked wrote: ↑Sun Oct 06, 2024 8:35 pm Are "yeah" and "nah" the only examples of the TRAP vowel in absolute-final position?
Re: People spelling "yeah" as "yea".
I have TRAP in yeah and PALM*/LOT in nah (and yah); I also have TRAP in what I would be tempted to write as "neah" but haven't really seen written anywhere.Darren wrote: ↑Sun Oct 06, 2024 8:41 pmYou have TRAP in those words??Glass Half Baked wrote: ↑Sun Oct 06, 2024 8:35 pm Are "yeah" and "nah" the only examples of the TRAP vowel in absolute-final position?
* PALM is the conventional name for this, but I don't actually have this vowel in palm.

Re: People spelling "yeah" as "yea".
I have DRESS in "yeah" and can have either PALM or TRAP in "nah". Since I have the cot-caught merger, I can also write the pronunciation with the PALM vowel as "naw".
Re: People spelling "yeah" as "yea".
Fwiw I've got SQUARE in "yeah" and START in "nah"
Re: People spelling "yeah" as "yea".
There is "baa" which can be said with the TRAP vowel as well as with the PALM vowel.Glass Half Baked wrote: ↑Sun Oct 06, 2024 8:35 pm Are "yeah" and "nah" the only examples of the TRAP vowel in absolute-final position?
