Indeed...

[CrotchBurn]

Was watching Bridgerton the other day and it made me think that simply saying "indeed" in response to something is so elegant and we should bring it back! It sounds so succinct and wise. Way better than "totally" or the gushing "oh absolutely". It sounds mysterious

Also "must" and "most" as in "I must thank you, Mr X. Your letter was most welcome indeed."

Too fucking right.

Indeed

Oh good, I already use the word indeed, I am very pleased to come across most elegant and classy.

Verily, thy post is wise.

@Nottheduchessofcambridge
How do you use it? Standalone as I mention or as in "very good indeed"?

I think the classiest is when someone is pontificating and they use it as an opener: "Indeed, the figures show..."

I cant imagine saying it with a straight face, will need to practice

I too use the word 'indeed'. I hadn't realised it was unusual, but I do live in the 19th century!

I use it stand alone when I agree with something someone has just said.
Sounds better than “omg yeah I thought that’s too”

The German “Ja, genau” works like this. “Yes, I agree” works so well to keep conversations going.

I use the word indeed, hadn't realised there was anything unusual about it. I also say 'quite' when I concur with what someone says.

It's very much in used! Usually with a bit of irony, but I see it all the time probably even use it myself sometimes.

Chur bro

Damn. I didn't realise I would be in a minority! I thought it had become really rare. And yeah, "quite" sounds great too!

I too use indeed, I thought it was in common use.

Quite so.

I immediately thought of this too.

Indeeeeeeeeeeeed.

I said it once it doesn't suit me. Similarly I can't "give someone the finger" (what's that gesture called?), just looks silly on me.

Teal'c did the same for me years ago😂

'Indeed' ................ Said Flop to Bastard Bing.
Thank goodness DGC's are now too old for this

Indeed you are correct.

And this post has made me realise I already do this .... a lot
