When you speak in normal sentences okay. And you speak like this okay. Is there a certain geographic area in the world that says, "okay" after normal sentences?

I never came across it okay
i have spoken to people who say it after everything they say....it really stands out when people do speak like that
But I have no idea if there is a place in the world where people speak like that lol
Not to my knowledge. That seems more like an idiolectal feature than a dialectal one.Quote:

noun: "My proposal got an okay."
verb: "I hope they okay my proposal."
adjective: "It's an okay proposal."
adverb: "My proposal went okay."
interjection: "Okay!"
How about those folks that cant spell. like DIALLECT. that is an incorrect spelling of DIALECT! how about those folks, what do they really mean to say?

Have a good one ! :stoned:
Well i think im the most confused i have ever been okay
it sounds a bit like the person has got an OCD, and has to make sure that you understand every sentance they say, before they can continue.
Ah, yeah, like people who say "know what i mean" after every sentence
That's what I thought.Quote:
