[quote=Anonymous]In casual midatlantic work settings, I often encounter the "hmm?" or "huh?" sound, never "what?", I think because we were all taught that "what" was rude, but not "huh", even though both can come across as rude. Some people say "pardon?" which is the right way of signaling you did not hear. I say "I'm sorry?". Others say "excuse me?". [/quote]
