An enthusiastic Geordie way of saying yes, definitely, course I will. Often tagged with man for extra warmth: whey aye, man. It’s the kind of agreement you hear in the pub, on the Metro, or when someone’s offering another round. Depending on your tone it can be cheeky or lightly sarcastic, but it’s usually pure friendly reassurance, right away.
"You still coming down the Toon for a pint after work? Whey aye, man, I’ll gan meet you by Central, like, give us five minutes."
