I"m pretty sure this word has been coming out my mouth now for some time, but not until recently has someone had the inclination to tell me that I sound stupid and what the hell does "ish" mean. So in light of this recent event, I will take a moment to fully explain and define my use of the word "ish."
Does it make sense? Does it have to make sense? Is it totally sassy and unnecessary and mildly annoying? You decide. I'll be throwing out "ish"s like they're my ish and all you ish biddies can just be your ish selves and deal with it.
- Ish comes from the suffix that we add to words to describe the noun as that adjective, but just not fully as that adjective. EX: "She was cute-ish. But not like the cutest ever."
- Ish has now been removed from its place as merely a suffix and is now a full on word of its own. "I can't be around these ish bitches with their vodka sodas and tacky heels."
- Ish also has a meaning rooted in the word "shit". EX: "I'll meet you for drinks a bit later, I've got all kinds of ish to get done."
