jumbej <HISlaH 'e' vIHech>. I understand the "No! I mean yes!" idea,
but I think the different types of yes/no answers make it at least as
understandable if it were just {Qo'! HISlaH!} followed by {vIta'Qo'.
HISlaH, jImunbej.}

Regardless of the words, I really enjoy the image of ghutar stumbling
over his answer.
