More ancient words from the Land of the Brave!

I was trying for an awkward sort of pose, but then again Thor does not lie about his own abilities... LOL

And how is it pronounced? Yay-ger? Yaaah-ger? Yegger?

It's honestly not one I've ever used, though I would think it would be the second option as looking into the history of the word suggests it might have been co-opted from a Norwegian word which... does make sense actually.

It's nice to see the example of the definition of the opposite of xenophobia, of which there is an awful lot these days.  And we learned another fun word from "Y".  One could go down quite a rabbithole with the Scots Dictionary with all kinds of interesting words.

I think Megan Fellows is the quintessential Anne for many people, though I'm sure just as many love Amybeth McNulty's portrayal in Anne With An E

I may go looking through the Scots dictionary and do an A-to-Z with that at one point.
