In some East Indian dialects, "yar" (or more appropriately "yaar") means friend, but it is used in many sentences as a sort of pause.
Uses:
1. To talk to a friend.
2. To add a frustration tone.
3. To express anger.
4. To insert a short pause, akin to the English word "um," though never used more than once in a sentence.
