This is how you spell the sound of whimpering. One can use the actual letters as a form of comedic whimpering. The letters are said individually and in pairs, as in: M-H, M-H, M-H.

Not much is known about this spelling, however many scholars attribute the origin of the spelling to a young teenager in the 1980's who lived on Long Island. Legends say that to this day, this man continues to mhmhmh all over the place.

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
