Yammer (verb) – to whine, complain in a sniveling, whimpering sort of way or to talk loudly (from Old English geomrian)
Word in a Sentence: In my novel Choices Meant for Gods, Jake Taiman yammers about how unfair it is that he has an arranged marriage with a young girl from far away, until he sees his lovely bride.
Your turn! Know anyone who does this? Man, I’ve worked with some of these folks…
“Some days, you just want the dragon to win.”
