Editor’s Corner: Y is for Yarmulke

Good morning! I think congratulations are in order because we’ve all made it this far. This is the last of the homonym sets from the Spelling, Vocabulary, and Confusing Words list. The “X” and “Z” categories are empty, so we’ll finish up with the letter “Y.” I may have added a little to one of the definitions. 🙂

yoke harness for oxen; the word “joke” as pronounced by someone with a Swedish accent
yolk yellow center of an egg

yore long past
you’re contraction for you are
your possessive pronoun
