It is not often used in modern day talking.


What does Yes My Liege mean

“my liege” is such an over the top form of address that it is often used in humour or sarcasm. Yes my liege literally means yess my lord, i will do it.


Example Of Use.

For example if a peer member of your group asks you to do a task for them, maybe because they are too lazy to do it themselves, ones response could be Yes my liege. a very sarcastic way of saying YES BOSS.


CONCLUSION:

Although such an archaic word, it is still used in times of humour or sarcasm.
