There are days when the fritinancy of insects awakens me to the realization that I am yawpish for jentaculum.

WHAT?

There are days when the twittering of insects awakens me to the realization that I am hungry for breakfast.

THAT’S WHAT!

Today’s WORD: yawpish, meaning hungry.  The word yawpish may have been more common during the 18th century, but I say let’s bring yawpish back.  Bring yawpish to each meal of the day… and to snacks, too.

Give your kids another way to say, “I’m hungry!”

Yes.  “I’m yawpish!” Go on.  Have a little fun with words.
