What does it mean?

[ravengirl.livejournal.com]

it means "yes"
and sometimes "duh" as in "well, yeah"~

it began with "yeah" with an "s" at the beginning
which is pretty california i think-
"shyah" which i just transformed into "cha"~

that was a long explanation for what i think
is a pretty simple thing!
