Etymology of YARDFULS

The word "yardfuls" is a compound word derived from two separate elements: "yard" and "fuls".

The term "yard" dates back to Old English, where it was spelled "geard" and referred to an enclosed piece of land around a house or a garden. It is related to the Old Norse word "garðr" which had a similar meaning. Over time, the meaning of "yard" expanded to refer to other things, such as a unit of length (equal to three feet or 91.44 centimeters). The length measurement "yard" itself likely originated from the notion of stretching a cord or rope, as it was commonly used to measure the distance between two outstretched arms.

The element "fuls" is the plural form of the word "ful", which originated from the Old English adjective "full" meaning "full, plentiful".
