English: homonyms: yolk vs yoke

Tutoring English, homonyms continue to be a favourite topic of mine. The tutor mentions yolk vs yoke.

Occasionally I forget, between yolk and yoke, which means which, so have to re-check.

Yolk means the yellow centre of an egg. On the other hand, yoke is a frame to fit around oxen to attach them to a plow they might pull, etc.
