#1 Saying Eh?

March 10, 2008

This shouldn’t come as a surprise. The one thing all Canadians share in common is their habit of changing every sentence into a question. This they do by ending every sentence by Eh. Here are a few examples:

The weather is nice eh ?

Thanks a lot for helping me out eh ?

What’s your name eh ?

This sounds silly but its true. Perhaps it is a reflection of the very deep and sub-conscious inquisitive nature of the Canadian people. I don’t quite know what the roots of eh are but it is definitely something that all Canadians enjoy doing.
