What is this "wee" word i see everywhere

[meditereb]

What does it mean ? Why is used for everything ?

It’s Scottish for little or small I believe

Scottish/Irish for small.

Seriously?

A wee bit of cake. A wee boy. A wee glass of wine. A wee bit windy.

It just means small.

I’m Scottish and yes it means small or in the case of “when I was a wee girl” it means young.

Why is it bothering you ?

You know what it means. What is the purpose of your post?

Ah! How lovely.... A non-sensical wee thread. Honestly you've never ever heard this word, and given the context it's used in, you haven't been able to work it out? You wee scone... Bless.

It’s Scottish/Irish. We’re everywhere

You don't know what wee means?!

A wee bit disingenuous.

Are you being a wee bit goady, OP?

Are you not from the UK?

It means small. I’m Scottish and use it a lot!

"You wee scone"

My wee Mammy.

As long as your not a wee troll...

where are you from OP?

Are you British?

Google is your friend, @meditereb

How old are you op? Have you never seen/heard this word before mumsnet?

Seriously???? 🤦‍♀️

Is MN even a UK site as such because I so frequently see posts where people say they’re not from here

Surely the context it’s used in makes it obvious. Although I have heard some shop assistants in Glasgow overuse it. The wee queue, the wee changing room, your wee receipt, the wee bag - everything was described as wee.
