You won't find this word listed in any standard dictionary, but it is being used. It is a combination of `yell' and `cellular'. When someone gets a call on his cell phone, and the connection is bad, what does the person do? In order to be heard, he usually shouts: as if the yelling will make the connection any better! This act of shouting in the hope that you will be audible is called `yellullar'.
