A word many won't have heard since they were in nursery school.

However, in backward parts of the UK, there was once an Escort Cosworth which was registered with a numberplate which ended in these three letters... therefore, completely rationally, the car which had this numberplate was referred to as YUM, by fully grown adults.
Awiiiite guvnor, apples n pears, turkish baaf... 'ow did YUM get on at Brunters?

Mate, can't adam'n'eve it, YUM never 'it 200mph today either boss... and when me old china parked up... we saw a small elderly gent chuckle before he was driven away in his big boostin white Saph Cossie? Ye get me?

Yellow Dog Updater, Modified

Yum is a great CLI application, with GUI front ends, similar to Apt for RPMs that makes updating, getting information about, installing and removing RPMs easy. It's used by Yellow Dog, Fedora Core, and RHEL (and possibly more distros I do not know about). When you install something via Yum, Yum automatically downloads and installs all dependencies of the package you want if you don't have the dependencies, putting an end to dependency hell if the package you want is in your Yum repositories.

A great Yum configuration file for the most recent stable Fedora Core that adds great repositories can be found at http://www.fedorafaq.org/samples/yum.conf
I escaped dependency hell for Frozen Bubble by using Yum :)
