My Question 1: Why they use though when they speak?

I have some of friends who can speak English. Of course, they are native speakers. These days, they speak some strange word in the end of the sentence, whenever they talk. I couldn't understand what they mention. It sounds 'though'. I'm not sure but it might me. I really wanna know why they use it when English speakers speak and what it means. Is this just habit?

Like this: bla bla ~~~ though, bla blla..though

Is anyone who can explain my quriosity?

    The interrogative "eh" is characteristically Canadian. Only in Canada do people use this particle to confirm interest of the listener. "It's only four more miles, eh". See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_English
