Etymology
The word 'yawling' is derived from the Old English 'gealwian', meaning to yell or cry out. The root can be traced back to various Germanic languages, where similar sounds were used to describe loud cries or howls made by animals. Over time, 'yawling' became a more specific term associated primarily with the cries of young animals, particularly kittens and puppies, but it has also been applied to humans in distress. This evolution reflects the emotive quality of the sound, signaling distress or a call for attention. As language evolved, the onomatopoeic nature of the word helped it gain popularity in informal contexts, effectively communicating the essence of a loud, mournful sound.
