[edit]Verb
[edit]ha
Etymology 2
[edit]Attested early 14th century,[1] of onomatopoeic origin. Compare Danish ha, Dutch ha, Finnish ha, Hungarian ha, Latin ha, Latvian ha, Swedish ha.
Interjection
[edit]ha
- A representation of laughter.
- Ha, ha, ha! That’s funny.
- An exclamation of triumph or discovery.
- Ha! Checkmate!
- (archaic) An exclamation of grief.
- (dated) A sound of hesitation: er, um.
Usage notes
[edit]- When used to express laughter, the word may be reduplicated in order to suggest expressive or sincere laughter. A single ha! (virtually always with an exclamation mark) may be used to express mild amusement or merely a polite reaction to something intended to be funny. In modern and informal usage, reduplication tends to be without spaces. See haha for more information on those forms.
