Connections authors when they find out a word has a completely dead and unknown meaning that no one has even used since the 1700s
@Jabberwocky4155 ай бұрын
I still got it because I knew the other 3 and “yen” sounded plausibly close to “yearn”.
@peanutbuttercracker15 ай бұрын
Not to mention they put it in the category they labeled as the “easiest”
@skeletonhaver5 ай бұрын
legitimately surprised to see this reaction. it's a fairly common word that is not even close to obsolete (and which didn't exist until the 1900s). usually used in the form of "a yen for [whatever]". keep an eye out and you will see it in articles, books, tweets, whatever
