Episode: Yare
Description: Yare is an adjective that means ready or set for action.
Coming from Old English, our word of the day was originally a term used to describe a ship that was easily manageable. Over time, it became more commonly used in everyday life. For example: The fans may have been yare, but the team was sluggish and unprepared. And unfortunately, the fans werenβt the ones on the field facing the Pittsburgh Steelers.
