As used in canon:

   Thus, if the occupant of a room heard a door chime, there
   would probably be no misunderstanding as a result of his or
   her saying {yI'Il!} ("Be sincere!") rather than the correct
   {yI'el!} ("Enter!"). In the situation at hand, only "Enter!"
   makes any sense.  (KGT 189)

Cf. also {yuDHa'} "be honest".
