jya
"Jya" is not a standard German word. It might be a misspelling or derived from another language.
In this sentence, 'jya' is used as a filler word, similar to 'well' or 'then' in English, providing a conversational tone.
Also, wenn er nicht kommen kann, jya, dann machen wir ohne ihn weiter.
Well, if he cannot come, then, we'll proceed without him.
Here, 'jya' serves as a bridging word to imply a logical conclusion or emphasis between ideas.
Er meinte, jya, dass wir das Treffen verschieben sollten.
He said, therefore, that we should postpone the meeting.
This usage of 'jya' acts as a tag question seeking confirmation about the previous statement.
