gap yah

(slang, nonstandard) variant of yeah; yes.

A British upper-class affirmation — a way of saying yes or indicating agreement, associated with the Sloane Ranger and yuppie social sets of 1980s London. The 'yah' replaces 'yes' in the stereotyped speech pattern of the privately educated British upper class, and 'OK yah' combines it with casual approval. Often used mockingly to imitate or parody posh British speech.

(slang, historical) Of a white inhabitant of Rhodesia: to emigrate from the country during its transition to independence.

Casual talk; chatter.

(Irish, slang) Students doing a transition year.
