Random information on the term “YAM”:

Yam is the common name for some plant species in the genus Dioscorea (family Dioscoreaceae) that form edible tubers. Yams are perennial herbaceous vines cultivated for the consumption of their starchy tubers in Asia, Africa, Central and South America, and Oceania. The tubers themselves are also called “yams”. There are many different cultivars of yams.

In parts of the United States and Canada, “yam” is sometimes used to refer to varieties of the completely unrelated sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas).

The name, yam, appears to derive from Portuguese inhame or Canarian (Spain) ñame, which are probably derived from West African languages, such as Fulani, Serer, or Wolof.[citation needed] The main derivations borrow from verbs meaning “to eat”.[citation needed]

Several other unrelated root vegetables are sometimes referred to as “yams”, including:

Yams are monocots, related to lilies and grasses. Native to Africa and Asia, yam tubers vary in size from that of a small potato to over 60 kg (130 lb). Over 600 varieties of yams are known, and 95% of these crops are grown in Africa.
