?Eh ( or in English) is a spoken interjection in English, Armenian, Japanese, French, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese meaning something along the lines of "Repeat that, please". It is also commonly used as a method for inciting an answer, as in "it's nice here, eh? ...

I'm Welsh - Wales where men are men and sheep can sure run fast!

Let's keep it constructive, please. If necessary, create a post on the "E", the "A", and on "Being native english speaker but proud to be Welsh", you sure 'll get some success!
