Zitat:I think that "No, siree," and "Yes, siree," "Yessiree," and "Yes, siree, Bob" are all casual way of saying, "You better believe it!"
You would think that it was a derivation of, "Yes, sir," and "No, sir," --which are respectful ways to answer someone--but the terms are not thought of as particularly respectful ways of answering someone, but casual-type answers.
John Steinbeck is the first known author that I know of to use, "Yessiree," often in dialogue in his books.
