    A diallect issue: Question.

    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?

    Not to my knowledge. That seems more like an idiolectal feature than a dialectal one.

    By the way, did you know that the word "okay" can be used as pretty much any type of word?
    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!"

    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.

    That's what I thought.

    To your idiolect suggestion, I don't see why the hell you pointed that out and as for the dialect crap, I didn't even notice, but fuck it, hell, I don't give a damn.

    Just freakin' erase this thread.
