”Nah” is like nails on a chalkboard. It is also a sign of a low or stunted intellect.


Nah!

What about the construction “Yeah, no.”


I’ll take “yeah, no” over “um, no”


I use both, depending on how dumb OP's take is.

Real question is why does it bother you OP? Are you a super sensitive person?

My dh told me I do this. When I've caught myself saying "yeah, no" I think the "yeah" means "I hear you" and the "no" means "I disagree with what you said". Yeah, no cuts the language down and I can get straight to explaining my thoughts.

Nah, it's just a casual and, perhap, snarky way to say "no".

It’s just a colloquialism meant to be dismissive. No need to overthink.
