No yeah

What do you find natural of "no" and "yeah"?

Dad: What did you do?

Son: Almost nothing.

Dad: Almost nothing? (skeptical)

Son: No/Yeah. But apparently enough to get expelled.

Dad: You got expelled?

I find 'yeah ' the natural response.

Let's expand the sentence a bit.

Dad: Almost nothing? (skeptical)

Son: Yeah, I did almost nothing.


The son's position is that he did what his father says (almost nothing), so he is agreeing with his father.
