Meaning
'It is not', or, tagged onto a statement, 'isn't it?' — the negative of the equating particle 'a' (is). 'Anuh me' means 'it wasn't me', flatly denying the charge, and 'anuh true?' at the end of a sentence turns it into 'isn't that so?', inviting agreement. One of the small but essential grammatical words of the language, 'anuh' does the work of negating an identity or an equation, and its second, question-tag use is heard constantly in ordinary back-and-forth talk.
Examples
-
Anuh me do it.
It wasn't me who did it.
-
Anuh so it go.
That's not how it goes.
-
Yuh coming, anuh true?
You're coming, aren't you?
Tagged on the end, it seeks agreement.
Origin
A fusion of 'a' (the equating 'is') and 'nuh' (not) — literally 'is-not'.
How it’s used
Works both to deny ('anuh so') and as a confirming tag question ('anuh true?'). Position in the sentence tells you which.
