håbe d'Ehre

Bavarian

Alternative forms

• håbedere, håwedere, habedere

Etymology

Borrowed from German habe die Ehre. Equivalent to i håb de Ehre, but the final -e in the verb form, which is entirely alien to Bavarian, attests to the Standard German origin.

2. (Austria, Vienna) Used to express awe, overwhelming, surprise. (mostly preceded by the interjection nå)
