And what in the world does "meh" mean? Did someone just recently make that up out of the blue? ![]() As in: "Meh, I could take it or leave it." I've also seen it spelled "feh." Do people really talk like that? Is this new teenage, highschool lingo? Maybe I'm just getting old.

I thought they ALL came from fat fingers

I thought that "meh" and "feh" are two slightly different words (and I use "words" very loosely, obviously). As I understand it, "meh" indicates more of an indifferent tone, whereas "feh" suggests a more dismissive attitude. Of course, I could be wrong.

prolly came from people that can't tyep |
"meh" is how we pronounce mais and it is used to start most sentences in Cajun. Mais chere, you want a beer? Mais ya, I caught some patasa this morning. Maybe it is spreading to common useage? |
pfft.. |
You're spot-on. Feh (interj.) Indicates disapproval or displeasure: Feh, don't touch that dirty thing. Meh Indifference; to be used when one simply does not care. A: What do you want for dinner? B: Meh. |

I was playing an online video game the other night and had a 15 year old kid join me. The jibberish he spouted off would make any elementary school grammar teacher have a heart attack. And yes I agree. Prolly is not a word! The cute spellings are retarded too. Bushy... Dissy... |
Just use it as a guide for assessing other posters intelligence/credibility. It serves as an indicator as to what to discard as static and what to consider as possibly useful information. ETA: After all, that's what's done face to face in real life. People with atrocious English who speak like trash are discounted. It helps get on to what might matter. |
gee, i always thought that it was should've, and that that was a correct contraction. dictionary.cambridge.org/define.asp?dict=L&key=HW*7232 |
