ych a fi

What does ych a fi mean?

Exclamation of disgust — yuck, ew, gross. Pronounced roughly 'uch-a-vee'. Deployed when someone mentions cold gravy, a dead pigeon, or your ex's new partner. The 'ch' is the throaty Welsh one, which makes it land harder than 'ew' ever could.

"He puts ketchup on his roast dinner — ych a fi."

Origin

Welsh interjection of disgust; literally something like 'ugh on me'.
