A term used in the Caribbean (specifically The Bahamas) to refer to a person (friend/acquaintance/man/woman/sometimes an animal). The "ey" is like saying "uh" and "ay" at the same time. Similar to the Jamaican patois term man dem, which refers to a person. Also similar to the word dude. Not to be confused with Beyonce's nickname Bey (Bee); which came about waaay after.

Phrase: Common to Plymouth, "ere bey" is frequently used as a greeting among those of a burberry inclination.

"Ere bey" can occasionally be difficult to understand as it sometimes elongated to last a good 20 seconds or so, with the "ere" reaching a pitch nearby dolphins in Plymouth Sound will cringe at.

The term is a form of chav janner, the language of Plymothian youths who think that text talk is an acceptable thing to use in an English exam.
Chav: "Eeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreeeee bbeeeeeeeeeeyyyyyyyyyyy..."
You: "You what...?"

Chav 1: "Ere bey!"
Chav 2: "Ere, you goin' up One Stop 'n' get some White Ligh'nin'?"
Chav 1: "Nah bey, we's goin' up Oceana, in't."
