A shrug with a sound attached. Someone asks how it was, and instead of picking good or bad you let out one flat syllable that means 'it did not move me'. Everything in this group can be held against that: the sound itself, the same flatness used to describe a thing, the same flatness used to describe how you feel, and finally the shrug treated as a thing that a film or a plan can receive.

可以想成一個「有聲音的聳肩」。有人問你覺得怎麼樣。你沒有選好,也沒有選不好。你就發出平平的一聲。那一聲的意思是「它沒有打動我」。這一組用法都可以放在這個畫面旁邊看。有時候那一聲自己就是回答。有時候那個平平的感覺拿來形容東西。有時候拿來形容自己。最後,那個聳肩本身也可以當成一個東西,說某樣東西「收到了一個 meh」。

From the word’s history

Wiktionary records meh as possibly from Yiddish מע (me, 'so-so'), first attested in 1928 with interjection use dated to 1992, and popularised by the American cartoon The Simpsons, which used it in a 1994 episode.

維基詞典記的是:meh 可能來自意第緒語的 מע(大概是「普普」),1928 年就有紀錄,當感嘆詞用則從 1992 年起算,後來因為美國動畫《辛普森家庭》1994 年的一集而傳開。這條線索跟核心畫面一致:它一開始就是一個聲音,不是一個有部件的字。
