yield

On-Yomi: クツ — Kun-Yomi: かが.む、かが.める

Koohii stories:

1) [stefanot] 29-4-2007(284): When yielding, soldiers raise the white flag before exiting from the trenches.

2) [broderickjeff] 5-1-2007(71): If you live in Japan, you are only too familiar with the helpful little man who assists you in getting out of every parking lot or parking garage, standing at the exit, waving his flag to make traffic yield to you.

3) [jameserb] 4-4-2008(26): The yellow flag at the exit indicates one should yield to oncoming traffic and pedestrians.

4) [plumage] 30-12-2008(17): When you YIELD in a battle, you raise the FLAG of surrender then EXIT the battlefield.

5) [Shibo] 13-5-2008(10): Nobody ever yields to oncoming traffic like they're supposed to, so they're trying to make a new law. If you don't yield, a cop will pull you over, make you exit your car, and pee all over you. (Note: I use "pee" for the "flag" primitive).
