Note
One spelling carries several unrelated verbs. The -ing form of yuck can mean saying "yuck" in disgust, gagging, laughing and joking, or yanking something. It is also a euphemism for a vulgar verb, so it is worth a glance at the company it keeps. Context does the sorting: yucking over a plate of food is disgust, yucking with friends is laughter. After be it is a participle; on its own it works as a noun (all that yucking).
