We've had this conversation before. I maintain that "woah" is how Keanu says it, and therefore it is a perfectly cromulent spelling.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I have to chill because otherwise Bailey gets concerned. She just wants me to SIT and STAY, not quadruple check my luggage/phone/makeup/etc.
Is Bailey a herding breed?
I have no idea. She doesn't really heard people as much as need to be present in the room, if not right by you. With us scattered thru the house, order of preference was Mac, msbelle, interloper.
(Her head is on my lap right now AIFG!)
Yeah, I think both "woah" and "yah" are different words said differently.
I don't really like either one, but I can accept them.
"Yah" looks like something the Swedish chef would say.
My kids also say "yea." But then, they spell "Well" as "Will" so what do they know?
"Woah" looks like it would be pronounced "woe-AH," which is not what I hear when Keanu says it. I hear "woe," with maybe a dragged out "oh" sound.
I can't believe I'm talking about this.
(Also, when people post "ya" instead of "yeah" I really do assume that they speak that way, like the Swedish chef, or someone from "Fargo.")
