Eh is a spoken interjection in many languages such as English, Armenian, Hokkien Chinese, Japanese, French, Italian, Greek, Hebrew, Spanish, Persian, Portuguese, and Catalan and many others that is similar in meaning to "Excuse me," "Please repeat that" or "huh?". Even if you do not know any of these languages you can still understand the meaning of Eh?. This is the concept of the game, even if you can not speak some languages you can still recognize them either with sounds, movements or cultural characteristics. | Eh is a spoken interjection in many languages such as English, Armenian, Hokkien Chinese, Japanese, French, Italian, Greek, Hebrew, Spanish, Persian, Portuguese, and Catalan and many others that is similar in meaning to "Excuse me," "Please repeat that" or "huh?".
