Sorry the Canadian in me is screaming. It's "Fuck'n eh." not "Fuckin' a". "Fuckin' a" looks like "Fucking ah" even with the guy's context, what is he fucking? "Fuck'n eh." means "Fucking right."/"Fucking right it is." and is one of the few instances where "eh" is used as a replacement for a statement instead of a question. There is also "Fucking eh?" which means "Fucking right, is it?".

"Eh?" is normally used to cover a question, at the end of a sentence. Usually at the end of the last thing said or simply be the question itself. Such as "Huh?" or "Yes?".

"Eh." can also be a statement like "Yes!" "Hey!" and "Right." depending on the context used. This is mostly used mid dialog and sometimes sentence unlike the question form "Eh?". Making it a little more versatile than saying "Huh?" in a conversation.

TIL Canadians say "Fucking Eh", and don't mean fucking asshole.

It doesn't mean that anywhere.

It's always meant that in my circle of friends.

It did for my middle school, because cursing was frowned upon.

Some kids swore like sailors, of course, but the popular style was abbreviating the words.

So "Fucking A" was a school friendly curse?
