An expression to either display annoyance, disagreement, or mockery of a person.
It can also however, be used as a greeting.
The word is not used towards people called Lee, however an element of humour is added if the phrase's target is indeed a person called "Lee".
The expression is usually accompanied by a hand gesture, in which
the speaker holds out both hands, fingers pointing upwards, palms facing away from the target, sometimes vibrating the hands in subtle
back and forth motions, though this action can be
exaggerated by thrusting both hands back and forth.
Examples:
In the case of a
disagreement:
PERSON A: "She's well fit"
PERSON B: *Expressed in a sarcastic manner* "Yeah Lee"
In the form of a greeting:
PERSON A: *Rings their friend on their
mobile phone*
PERSON B: *Picks up* "Yeeeeeeeeah Leeeeeeeeeeeeeee!"
In the form of mockery:
(Persons A and B are
playing football)
PERSON A: *Skies the ball way over the bar*
PERSON B: "Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!"
