I am of Prussian (German) descent and know some phrases but...?

Question

I would like to know how to say, "Yes, my dear" in German. If you can spell it out for me, I know enough of the pronunciation to figure out how to say it. Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Yes = Ja
My = mein
Dear = liebchen

So then it would read like that

Ja, mein liebchen

Answer 2

I would translate "yes, my dear" as

"ja, mein Schatz" (gender neutral) or
"ja, meine Liebe" (feminine)
"ja, mein Lieber" (masculine)

"Liebchen" means "darling" or "sweetheart" and is a tiny bit old fashioned by now.

Answer 3

to a woman you say ya meine liebe.
to a man you say ya meiner lieber.
