Definition of way

way    Featured Word

interjection

  1. used to affirm one's statement, after someone conveys their doubt or disbelief. This was popularized by the characters Wayne and Garth in the "Wayne's World" sequences in the US television show Saturday Night Live. One character would say something, the other would say, "No way!" Then, "Way!" "No way!" "Way!" Back and forth. This has entered common usage to a degree that one can use the expression "Way!" to assert the truthfulness of something, even if the other person doesn't use the exact phrase, "No way!"
    Speaker: Is that true?
    Response: Way!
