# Yes - `v::yes()` - `v::yes(boolean $locale)` Validates if value is considered as "Yes". ```php v::yes()->validate('Y'); // true v::yes()->validate('Yea'); // true v::yes()->validate('Yeah'); // true v::yes()->validate('Yep'); // true v::yes()->validate('Yes'); // true ``` This rule is case insensitive. If `$locale` is TRUE, uses the value of [nl_langinfo()](http://php.net/nl_langinfo) with `YESEXPR` constant. *** See also: * [BoolType](BoolType.md) * [BoolVal](BoolVal.md) * [No](No.md)
