For those unfamiliar with the term, Oxford's Contemptful Dictionary describes yeomen as being petty, offensive and just generally not very pleasant to be around.

...but in all seriosity:

(n) yeoman [for those unfamiliar with the term, the Concise Oxford Dictionary defines yeoman as petty officer] [This was omitted from the English-Klingon listing of TKD]

[From the KLI's New Words List]

Petty of what?!  We're waiting!

(I know it's supposed to say "petty officer"... but it looks like
whatever software you're using to send the KWOTD has a length limit
that's cutting some entries off.)
