Yawn

A common sign of lack of sleep or boredom. It erupts from your mouth, kind of like a weird moan. Very contagious. You could experience a series of yawns just by seeing, hearing, and or thinking about yawning.

yawn

A biological mechanism, commonly of mammals, used to restore oxygen to the brain when fatigued.
If none of us yawned we would either pass out or become mentally debilitated, so yawning during a boring conversation is not that rude after all.

Yawn

When stopping somebody telling you about a REALLY BORING story that you don't care about with the word YAWN.

Quite a rude term, think about before using.
Drag out for extra effect.
