Usage notes

  • This pronunciation is most commonly heard in song, especially as the last word on a line, and especially in the sense of a romantic partner. This means that the plural form is rarely used. However, as with the similar words partay and sexay, the normal spellings are common even when the drawled pronunciation is intended.
