Yar, английский
- Pirate for yes. example britney spears dave, your the coolest wanna go for lunch me yar!
- York antwerp rules
- [anglo-saxon gyrde]. a long cylindrical timber suspended upon the mast of a vessel to spread a sail. they are termed square, lateen, or lug: the first are suspended across the masts at right angles, and the two latter obliquely. the square yards taper from the middle, which is called the slings, towards the extremities, which are termed the yard-arms; and the distance between is divided by the artificers into quarters, called the first, second, third quarters, and yard-arms. the middle quarters are formed into eight sides, and each of the end parts is figured like the frustum of a cone: on the alternate sides of the octagon, in large spars, oak battens are brought on and hooped, so as to strengthen, and yet not greatly increase, the weight.—to brace the yards. to traverse them about the masts, so as to form greater or lesser angles with the ship`s length. (see brace.)—to square the yards. (see square.)
- [ang.-sax. for dexterous or quick]. it was formerly a favourite nautical phrase, as “be yare at the helm;” and is used by shakspeare`s boatswain in the tempest.
- Describes a ship that is trim, responsive, lively, and answers readily to the helm. the term has been in use since the 13th century, but is seldom heard today (rhymes with care). also yare.
