No. A yard measures a straight line, which is 3 feet long. A square yard measures a square that is 3 feet long on each side. Multiply two sides to get the total area of a square yard. So a yard is 3 feet long and a square yard covers an area of 9 feet.

Is a square yard the same as a yard square?

'One square yard' and 'a yard square' are the same thing. But that only works with 'one'. With any amount bigger or smaller than one, there is always a difference. Two square yards is definitely not the same thing as two yards square! Two square yards is 'one square yard' plus 'one square yard'. That's 2 sq. yds. A two yard square is an area that is two yards long and two yards wide. That's 4 sq. yds.
