A "filler" word or word capable of replacing the worn out common words like "uh huh," "yeah", "yep," etc.
Also usable as a word noting assurance or confidence, or a word
representing a feeling of
satisfaction.
This word is free of exact definition, it's a word that you can use in whatever way you feel
comfortable.
This word originated in West Virginia in the late 90s, and rapidly spread throughout the state amongst more traditional West Virginians.
1) Billy: "Man that deer sure was nice."
Dale: "Bep"
2) An
acquaintance passes you on the sidewalk, he nods.
You nod, then casually say, "bep."
3) A movie has just ended, you look to your right and left, stretch, and in mid stretch utter a more strenuous version of "bep."
4) You're in an elevator with several people, one of which is very strange. That person then gets off the elevator, and it seems something should be said, but you satisfy that need simply by saying, "bep."
5) Throughout a long unwanted
conversation, you occasionally say "bep" to make the
individual think you are paying attention.
