If you'd like Ygyde to be a useful language for anyone to learn (which is
the whole point of an IAL), then here are some scenarios I've had in my own
life where I'll need some new vocab.

Out crabbing...
- crab
- lobster
- clam
- mussel
- fish
- algae
- lobster trap
- eel

Getting wood for making stuff...
- tree
- trunk
- limb
- log
- rotten
- elm
- birch
- bark
- oak
- willow
- coppice
- prune (v.)
- spruce

Electronics...
- volt
- amp
- watt
- ohm
- farad
- transistor
- capacitor
- resistor
- transformer

Cooking...  (all verbs)
- fry
- saute
- bake
- deep-fry
- boil
- simmer
- heat

If you can translate all these into Ygyde without a problem, then perhaps
it's a better IAL than I thought.  And you might have a new supporter...
