Oprindelse

Ordet hey stammer fra gammelengelsk hé, som blev brugt som et udtryk for opmærksomhed eller hilsen. Det kan spores tilbage til oldnordiske udtryk som hei og heill, som betyder hej eller velkommen. Derfor bruges ordet hey i dag stadig som en uformel måde at hilse på nogen eller tiltrække deres opmærksomhed.
