I wouldn’t even hate it so much if it were spelt better. Ahh reads like the noise the doctor asks you to make. I can’t help but read it like that in my head, and my head doesn’t like it. I’m not even sure what the phonetically correct spelling would be. Even aaa would be better imo.
In speaking I don’t mind it tbh, I just hate how it’s spelled, as I can’t help but read it as the noise you make with your mouth open at the doctor, which sounds all kinds of wrong.
And don’t get me started on people who say ‘ahh’

Ahh is a word I use for thinking sounds (ahh, uhm, um) so I keep reading it as that and then I have to reread it. Annoying!
I’m not sure what that refers to, and I’m not getting it from the replies.
It’s gen-z speak for ass.
More like algospeak, there’s a lot of adequate but quiet gen-z’ers, believe me they despise it as much as everyone else.
I am 20. I hate algospeak so bad. But “ahh” kinda stuck in my tongue
“ahh” feels like the sound you’d make when you try to say “ass” quickly
I feel like “ass” and “ahh” conveys different feelings so I use them interchangably. But I still cringe a bit because “ahh” originated from algospeak

Oh, thank you. Is it pronounced like ‘A’?
Pronounced like ass, but without the s sound, instead just extending the a sound.
Oh, duh, that makes sense
what is that? what is that “ahh” thing?
