Note
A spoken answer turned into a countable thing: once the casual yes of yep becomes a noun, each utterance can be counted, and the plural takes a plain -s. It keeps the easygoing register of the interjection, so it suits dialogue and reported speech rather than formal prose. The capitalized Yep, an initialism for the Yorkshire Evening Post or a Cantonese surname, is a separate word altogether.
