why conny?

Huh = (slang) (Shortening of the slang "I know, huh." and is not pronounced "haw") Word used solely as a response, in order to express either complete agreement with or to belittle the issuer of a statement or infrequently a question. The intonation is changed to distinguish between the two meanings. When used in agreement, the intonation is friendly and non-confrontational.

er =To utter the word "er" when hesitating in speech, found almost exclusively in the phrase um and er.
He ummed and erred his way through the presentation.

King to Tut,
I took it to mean King Tutenkhamen.

Clarification from Wotan please?

If wrong I stand corrected.
