Damn The Office.
People aren’t allowed to speak bad Pennsylvania Dutch without referencing Scranton? There are plenty of towns in eastern Pennsylvania that make Scranton look like a booming metropolis, and there are plenty of people in those towns who can’t properly pronounce “hey now.”
I live near Benton PA you know the little town in the endless mountains where every last name in the phone book is the same.
Hayna is a NEPA (Scranton) expression that means “isn’t it” or ‘ain’t it”, to signify agreement at the end of a sentence. Sometimes it’s said “hayna or no”
Geez, sorry... I went to “da U” in Scranton, and was just a bit nostalgic for the dialect/accent. My only reference to The Office was just that it hadn’t captured the local dialect. It’s like Cheers would be with out the Bostonian.
