(Scotland) sand lark.
A Scottish dialect verb meaning to yell loudly or shriek — to let out a loud, uncontrolled cry. More emphatic and less dignified than simply 'shouting,' yelloch implies a raw, uninhibited vocalization driven by strong emotion. Still comprehensible in Scottish English though not in everyday current use outside dialect contexts.
