[SOLVED] What does "nyae" mean? And How can I change it?

I use Arch linux with KDE desktop environment. And I used konsole often. I must admit I'm new to linux and often I make mis-typing in terminal like "htop" etc.. I know I have not installed htop yet. Because I have "top". "top" is enough for me. Not just "htop". There are alot. That problem is everytime I made a mis-typing like that, the auto correct thing from terminal is saying " correct '....' to '...' [nyae]? " right? I appreciate the auto correct thing. But I don't know the meaning of "nyae" from terminal. But I know the "nyae" from real place where I came from. It doesn't have good meaning. Like "Hey Little bro (or) Hey, I'm big bro, you are little one, you know nothing" like that. I know the word "nyae" from terminal mean something else. But I just want to change it something else like "eg. right? or okey?". Not changing distro, just that word. Can you help me. Sorry for long text.

No, yes, abort, edit.

If you had installed this system yourself, you would have known that. Presumably, it is some OMZ thing.

I watch some youtube and I just wanted to experience how does 'zsh' look like. No. Not really know the meaning. How can I change it?

You don't want to change it. It isn't a word. It is the list of letters you can type in response. If you change it, it will no longer list the responses. It is just short hand for

n, y, a or e

Unless you are going to change the software to allow different responses (i.e. do more than change the 'word'), it makes no sense to alter it.

oh, nobody told me it's a combination of the first letter of commands. I should have research more about it before I asked in this forum. Sorry to bother you all.

Thanks Seth. I remember these old days working with 3.5" floppy disks. This joke make me smile. I have a shop before and I only sold cheaper ones. I rarely seen a floppy disk sold from my shop can last than half year. Sometimes it last a few day.
