/feech feech/ , interj. If someone tells you about some new improvement to a
program, you might respond: Feetch, feetch! The meaning of this depends
critically on vocal inflection. With enthusiasm, it means something like
Boy, that's great! What a great hack! Grudgingly or with obvious doubt, it
means I don't know; it sounds like just one more unnecessary and complicated
thing. With a tone of resignation, it means, Well, I'd rather keep it
simple, but I suppose it has to be done.
