Hi All,

I sometimes come across this kind of UK dialect, where they put "so" at
the end of the sentence. Like:

    Blan-blah, we did this then we did that, so.
    It didn't work out anyway, so.
    Or [basically any assertive sentence], so.

How does an american reader see it? Is it just some kind of UK English
or even a person's trait? I also found this on Quora:

======
Ending a phrase with "so" is as common as randomly dropping the word
"like" into a sentence, which is another quirk of language in Ireland.
Saying goodbye could be "Later so" or "Are we going for a pint, so?" It
can mean "then" or some suggest "eh".
======

Does this seem accurate?
