| 1. | What say you? | ||
|
An archaic English phrase that is still used in a legal and governmental context. It is used to ask for a verdict or a vote.
This phrase is sometimes used in everyday conversation with the same meaning - usually with the intent of seeming formal, stylish, or unusual. Speaker of the House: "Representative from Ohio, what say you? Yah or Nay"
Representative: "Nay" |
