Well I have to say this was a semi-contentious word (looking at no-one in particular...) but it has survived and has begat many little daffynitions which are entombed below for your perusal and choice (including the elusive TRUE MEANING)
ps there has been an arrangement with Faldage that she can vote for whichever daffynition takes her fancy (so please do not discount the one chosen!).
Without further ado...THE DAFFYNITIONS
A)
Yegg - clinical jargon for an embryo, derived as a contraction of the phrase "young egg."
B)
A gelatinous adhesive used to attach the seal to a wood stove door.
C)
Yegg ( or Yeggya)......the pseudomythological creatures created by the American horror writer H. P. Lovecraft, in the book, Lost City of R'lyeh.
Description: The Yegg appear like large white flatworms, possibly of extraterrestrial origin, and they are able to project organic darts into other creatures (humans) to enslave them. Though they can live anywhere, they prefer to spend their time in the catacombs beneath the earth.
D)
Yegg: a burglar or safe-breaker. Origin unknown – possibly from surname of well known itinerant burglar
E)
Yegg: The first stone placed at the bottom of a cairn. (Welsh)
F)
Yegg: a natural channel or fissure in a peat moor
G)
A wooden pipe with a sliding lid, chiefly for smoking marijuana or hashish.
H)
Yegg: actually Y'yegg-
A drink found among the rural tribesfolk of Mongolia,
made from fermented yak milk, and spiced with a particular ground root from a plant called yoyegg.
I)
A schlemiel

if I were voting, which I'm not, at least not at the moment, I'd be torn between i) for its succinctitude or c) for its verbositude.

I know its not A and I like a couple of others so not voting yet...
C has a familiar ring to it and if its I, well funny how it came right after the Yiddish words featured last week (thats all I'm saying).
