Description

From wikipedia: In road transport, a YIELD (Canada, Ireland, and the United States) or GIVE WAY (Hong Kong and most Commonwealth countries) traffic sign indicates that a vehicle driver must prepare to stop if necessary to let a driver on another approach proceed (but has no need to stop if his way is clear). A driver who stops has yielded or given his right of way to another. In contrast, a stop sign always requires a complete stop.

Tagging

Tagging is done in the same manner as with the highway=stop key.
