Definition:
Yoke-fell describes tiredness that feels like a load laid across the shoulders. It is not just sleepiness, but fatigue that slows thought and makes movement feel costly. The word carries an old, physical image—work, strain, and the long pull of obligation. Yoke-fell weariness can arrive after effort, stress, or days without rest. It captures exhaustion shaped like a burden.
