Yea

A versatile phonetic spelling that pulls double duty as both an affirmative response and a dialectical pronunciation of 'you,' popular in Irish and Scottish English. Basically 'yeah' with regional flair and occasional Shakespearean pretensions.

Example Usage

Yea, I'll be there at six—what time are yea planning to show up?
