I knew there'd be a yl word here tonight, but I'm having a devvil of a time trying to monkey it. If that's not bad enough, one of the dictionaries I went to lists 65 4 letter words beginning with yl

The I (eye) and the L (ell) are hard to tell apart with this font. You can enlarge the screen (do a Google search for how) if you have vision issues.
