hey


no particular meaning, just added on to the end of a sentence: It's a hot day today, hey? See eh.

Contributor's comments: Most often spoken along with an upward inflection at the end of a statement. This is commonly used by people in Western Australia to end sentences. In the '70s and '80s I never heard it in Victoria or in South Australia, but it seemed very common in WA.
