Welcome to another mind-bending installment of Word Woman's Weekly Work-Out! And what an amazing word we have for you this week, courtesy of one of my co-workers! Even Word Woman herself had never heard of this one before:
Lucubration: [noun] laborious or intensive study; also the product of such study - usually used in the plural.
-- "lucubration", http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/lucubration , 4/19/2011.
Example: Sam's lucubrations on herbal remedies were a welcome addition to the group's project on alternative medicine.
