Yanni

A very sweet and caring person. He has the biggest heart and deserves everything he has. he has amazing looks and an even better personality. he is never selfish, and always puts others before himself. sometimes he may think to much, but everything always works out. sometimes he blames things on himself, when they r never his fault, but he just like that. he can be ur best friend, ur shoulder to cry on, anything u need him to be. he really is an amazing person and if u have a personlike him in your life, try to not screw it up. it will be the biggest mistake you will ever have made.

Wow. I wish i could have a friend like yanni

yanny

A mishearing of the word laurel said to be caused by one's ears picking up on a select set of frequencies over others uttered in the pronunciation of the same word. this became a large phenomenon much akin to the 'What color is the dress' debate from several years earlier, and truly had folks everywhere in disagreement. The original recording of the pronunciation of this word came from vocabulary.com under the definition for laurel.

Momentarily bewildered person 1: Wtf is a Yanny. That's not how you pronounce Laurel
Person 2: It clearly says Laurel actually..

Yanni

Yanni is the heir of the lost Assyrian Empire. After the Empire escaped through the STAR-GATE, Yanni was sent forward in time to the early 2000s, left to grow on Earth and learn gambling in the land of America. Yanni is destined, by prophecy, to one day open the STAR-GATE and allow the Assyrian Empire to reenter Earth from the 5th moon of Saturn. The process, however, would ultimately lead Yanni to sacrifice his body and be reborn as Tudiya, the first Assyrian king, to restart the Borto cycle. This is the prophecy. This is the future. Assyria forever. In Borto we believe. Open the STAR-GATE, Yanni Borto. We are waiting.

Yanni Borto is destined to open the STAR-GATE and bring back the Assyrian Empire, starting a new Golden Age, known as the Borto Age.
