A German word meaning "both yes and no". Derives from the German "ja" for yes, and "nein" for no. Rhymes with "shine". This usually is said in response to a question that appears to be a yes/no question but on later consideration is actually more complicated than that.
HMB: I hear in Germany they sell alcoholic beverages by the liter instead of by the pint. I'll bet that's a much better way to enjoy yourself.
Dagmar (perplexed and pondering): Jein. Actually it is not being that simple, for the price of a glass of beer is higher than elsewhere, also it is harder to pace yourself... but I understand that time is rare so I must shrug it off.
HMB: LOL and ROLFMAO at your awesome German transliterations! "Time is rare"! You German girls are so cool! (Nuffles Dagmar.)
Dagmar (bewildered): ...does not compute...

Get the jein mug.German colloquial expression meaning yes and no (ja und nein, but pronounced 'yein'), used to describe a situation that is overtly true, but covertly false, or something that seems one way, but is in reality another, rather like the expression 'Ja, ABER...' which means anything else but 'yes'.

Get the Mary Jein mug.En person der minder om en Brian. Han mangler situationsfornemmelse og empati. Han har et materielt værdigrundlag, men har ikke sans for stil eller nogen form for smag. Han synes som regel, at han selv er alt for nice, men alle andre synes han er kikset eller irriterende.
Jeineren siger til en person der ikke er så stærk socialt og motorisk - : Haha hvor du dårlig til fodbold.
Efterfølgende falder Jeineren selv over bolden og alle griner.

Get the Jeiner mug.Jeiny is very unique. She is a strong independent individual but can also be very shy. She knows how to separate herself from all the drama and bullshit although It is hard to for her to express herself or her feelings but once she does she feels very relieved and happy to know that she is understood.

Get the Jeiny mug.In a game of billiards you hit the white ball dead center and for some strange reason the ball goes in a completely different direction either left or right.
I jeiny shotted that ball and it ended up flying off the table and hitting that guy next to me in the face.

Get the Jeiny Shot mug.A Jeina has a laleidoscope personality. Meaningit changes all the time. One minute she could be the happiest person evr, the next she could look ready to kill someone. She has black hair and light brown eyes. Jeina keeps emergency supplies everywhere. She is a fast runner. She loves teasing her friends with their ships, but will defend them at anytime when things start getting messy. Most men will crush or like a Jeina but are most likely scared of them.
Boy1: Dude don't make Jeina mad or she will murder you!
Boy2: She wouln't! *GULP* would she?
Jeina: You bet I would!
Boy2: She wouln't! *GULP* would she?
Jeina: You bet I would!
