What does 何があんだよ mean here?


> なんでここに?

Why are you here

> 飯食いに来た以外に何があんだよ

"Other than coming to eat..."

I'm stumbled on this meaning of 何があんだよ. From context he seems to be saying
"what else is there to do here?"

However would he use か if it was a question? What is this meaning of 何があんだよ?




何があんだよ is short for 何があるんだよ, where ん is an explanatory-の and よ is a sentence-
end particle. For the underlying rules of this contraction, see [this
answer](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/a/61959/5010).

For this だ, see [this
question](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/q/55641/5010). When in speech, it
works as a masculine and rough question marker. 何があるのか would be grammatically
correct, too, but it sounds stilted and formal, making it almost impossible in
an informal conversation like this.
