The yare movements of the sailboat capivated the spectors until they turned too hard and capsized.

Yare is uncomfortably close to a poor and barely literate English speaker's version of 'here.'

So much so, it makes my skin crawl.

If a vessel is described as 'yarest', it means that it responds quickly to the helm and is easily handled.

Every so often, Myr gives us a 'Word of the Day', like today's. Yare, it just breezes by and is gone out of sight in a flash, or sinks right in front of us, leaving the odd bubble(or two).

 Two(2) members responded, with a grand total of 46 words.

Here is my minuscule bit of input. The first, expanding on their comments. The second, for entertainment and a possible smile?

Yare meaning: Agile, quick, responsive, nimble, lively - OneLook

What does Yare Yare mean in Japanese?
