Teh

[GTIR]

I keep seeing this word and was wondering what it means and how long people have been using it?
Maybe it's a PH acronym or new "cool" word (even though me using the word cool isn't cool)

I even noticed it in The Telegraph this morning, how is that possible?

Oi, Telegraph sort your spell checker out!

A typo, surely. Either that or I'm just too old to notice the English language changing around me.

"Furthermore, teh can be used in front of a verb in a novel form of gerund, and it has the ability to turn nearly any word into an intensified noun, which can take the place of a superlative. The best-known example of this is the word suck. Thus, the phrase "this sucks" can be converted into "this is teh suck" ("teh suck" being equivalent to the superlative "the suckiest", or simply just "sucky")



Long live Wikipedia. It may be crap, but it is sometimes quite funny.

Think this came along before the web was born.

Ok. Who was this then?

"Someone should take aside the writer of this article and apply Gordon Brown management skills. Very badly error checked, bad spelling and sloppy unclosed quotation marks."

Don't newspaper writers have an F7 button like the rest of us?

Or at least someone who proofs articles before print...

Only here, would a simple typo get a thread devoted to it...

Perhaps it was a Northern reporter, as in t'Gherkin.

And Vintage cars are 1919 to 1931, so her 2002 Bentley is certainly not vintage.
