    Thanks for the replies.

     I was noticing on FB that a lot of my friends reply with 'yep' which sort of irritates me, since they don't actually pronounce it that way when they say it aloud.

     I've been trying to get DD to stop saying yah/yup/yip and say yes instead. I just find now, with the places I work, and the clients I have, that there are so many people that reply with a ya/yup and they don't get treated as well as someone who replies yes.

    Usually I say " correct" if it applies to the situation. It is a clear message. Otherwise it is yes
