This Needs to Be Said

The word pronounced \ˈyā\ is spelled y-e-a. NOT y-a-y.

Example: Yea, my blog traffic is at an all time high!

What? You thought “yea” was pronounced \ˈyaə\. No. That is spelled y-e-a-h.

Example: Yeah, I do hate it when people spell yea, y-a-y.

I am sorry if this post offends anyone, but this is my biggest internet pet peeve of all time. Every time I see this mistake, I cringe.

I had to let it out.

For my health.

Please feel free to double check this in a dictionary.
