I asked Jill's artificially intelligent friend:
"Having a yen for him" means having a strong desire or craving for
him, often in a romantic or emotional sense. The word "yen" originates
from the Chinese and Japanese languages and came into English to mean
a deep, intense longing for something or someone.

You didn't know what the meaning of the word, in this context,
is??  You've learned a new American, I'm guessing it's a
saying peculiar to the USA, saying!!  Congrats!

Bruce is slowly learning American English. Someday, he may be able to
verbalize what he's learned, to an American, and be understood.
