("yeet")
The first instance of the
word 'yeat' appears during World War II as a ship-to-ship Naval greeting to identify oneself as a a resident of Newburyport, Massachusetts, USA. A response in kind indicated that the
man had found a fellow Newburyporter.
The
word has endured to this day, but the meaning has drastically evolved. While still used as a greeting, though rarely in the original spirit of the
word, the word is now a profanity used in innumerable contexts. Meanings include: "fuck that", "fuck you", "fuck off/get the fuck out of here", "fuck", "fuckin' a", and "shit". The examples below
will allow for the best understanding of the various uses of the
word.
Often used in the phrase "yeat da bun".
