601: Lax Vowel Endings Jul 31, 2016

There are very few words in English that end in lax vowels, including 'meh', 'eh', and 'nah'. 'Meh' was coined by the Simpsons tv-show which often does experiment with language. All of them will be found in everyday speech, but tends to not be included in the rest of a clause. To try to fit 'eh' in the middle of a sentence without being separated with punctuation would be difficult, and if you listen, there is almost always a long break between the expressions and the rest of the sentence like 'eh, I don't really like it".
