I was having dinner at someone else's place when I heard the hostess
ask her daugher a negative question along the lines of: "You haven't
[...]?"
She replied: "Yes. No."
It inspired the word _áhi_ in Calénnawn, which now has:
á yes
hi no
áhi indeed, it's not (as a reply to a negative question)
áha on the contrary, it is (Fr.: si) (as a reply to a negative question)
