Do you say "Meh"?


"Meh" - the expression people use when they're feeling bored or indifferent has earned a place in the Collins English Dictionary.

Head of content at Collins Dictionaries, Cormac McKeown, said the origins of "meh" were murkey, but gained popularity after used in a 2001 episode of The Simpsons where Homer asked Bart and Lisa if they wanted to go on a day trip.

"They both just reply 'meh' and keep watching TV," Mr McKeown said.

The dictionary defines "meh" as an expression of indifference or boredom, or an adjective meaning mediocre or boring
