Why this word is great
BEYELP — [Verb] To boast about or glory in something, especially in a loud and ostentatious manner. From Middle English beyelpen, from Old English beġielpan ("to boast, exult"), equivalent to the intensive prefix be- + yelp (in its original sense "to boast, to exult"). Unlike "boast," a general declaration of pride, or "exult," which can be a silent, inward triumph, to beyelp is to orchestrate one’s glorying as a clamorous public spectacle. It is the tavern braggart pounding the table, the market charlatan bellowing his cure, the social-media post that blares not as a sharing but as a fanfare—the raw, grating sound of pride demanding witness, because unshared joy feels, to some, like no joy at all.
