"Yea", being the more formal version of the standard "yes" or plebeian "yeah", is more appropriate than "yay", that being an expression of delight.

Whilst indeed your conjecture is accurate, can you not admire that which evokes the highest form of amusement, wherein the homophone indicates simultaneously the approval and delight regarding a feline's coincidental coloration and haughty gaze?

[–]The Right Honourablekkjdroid 0 points1 point ago

That could indeed be true. I shall concede this round, good sir.

My good sir,

Nay I say! This feline companion is not of proper stature! Mere hair of the upper lip doth not constitute a gentleman! I prithee thou doth know this!

My folly now being known to thine person, I will stay upon the vessel I have crafted and proceed to accompany it as the waters of my failure rise.

Hear, hear!

Mon cher monsieur, voilà qui nous change agréablement des moustaches habituelles qu’ont les chats!

(In french, cats’ whiskers are called «moustaches»)…

*Yea
