Yas /jɑːs/ is a playful or non-serious slang term equivalent to the excited or celebratory use of the interjection “yes!”, carrying LGBT or queer cultural associations. Yas was added to Oxford Dictionaries in 2017 and defined as a form of exclamation “expressing great pleasure or excitement”. Yas was defined by Oxygen’s Scout Durwood as “a more emphatic ‘yes’ often paired with ‘queen’.” Yas can alternatively be spelled with any number of A’s and S’s in order to increase the grade of excitement or add more emphasis. In other words, the exclamation often appears in the form “Yas, queen!” and with spelling variants such as “yaas!” or “yaasss!”

The earliest use of the spelling yas quoted in the OED is from George Colman the Elder’s play Spleen in 1776: “Rubrick. We’ll go in, and prepare the advertisement. Machoof. Yas, we mun invastigate its axcellent faculties.” However, this usage is not the modern slang one. Similarly, yass was used by the character Dean Moriarty (based on Neal Cassady) in Jack Kerouac’s 1957 novel On the Road.
