Yaump (n.): (YAH-ump) A tribal expression of bonding chanted in rhythm as a male is initiated into a primal gathering, and granted his place in the hierarchy as an alpha, omega, etc.
(note: The expression usually falls between, 'Umph' and 'Ooh' during a standard chanting string: 'Hoo-ya, Oogie boogie-Boogie, Hoo-Rah, SnarNar, Umph, Yaump, Ooh, Aah, Humph')
