If I may, Internet, a brief grammar lesson on the affirmative
Yay = short for “Hooray!”
Yea = “Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death…”
Yeah = “yes,” but casual/slang
Yah = NOT A WORD, unless you want to sound like you’re saying “Ja” in German, and you continue with “das ist gud,” and then you chug a beer and eat a sausage at the same time
Yar = “yes” in Piratespeak
Yup, yep = “yes” in Redneck
Yuppers = “Yeah, I am an idiot”
Go ye therefore and not be stupid.
Isn’t “yea” kind of a formal “yes”? As in “yea or nay?”

I hope you like the inconsistency in the order of my quotation marks and question marks, BTW.

Damn. I missed one. An amendment may be in order. I discern “yuppers” to be something cartoon Goofy would say, and “yeppers” to be something actual people would say. But after Congress and its subcommittees get through with it, who knows.

I attempted to come up with a short form for Huzzah, but I just made everyone who read it hungry for pizza.
