Usage notes

While Lua error in Module:utilities at line 142: attempt to perform arithmetic on local 'h' (a nil value) and 酔(よ)う (you) are used interchangeably for becoming drunk, 酔(よ)う (you) is a more general term, also used for sickness (as in seasickness) or elation, while Lua error in Module:utilities at line 142: attempt to perform arithmetic on local 'h' (a nil value) is a more narrow term, referring only to drunkenness.

Further, 酔(よ)い (yoi) refers to drunkenness (the condition), while 酔(よ)っ払(ぱら)い (yopparai) refers to a drunk (the person).
