interregnum - the time between two reigns, governments
hemimillenial - half millennium; every 500 years (took me a min. hemi- as in hemisphere/not in most dictionaries/from Asimov's Foundation's Edge ch1)
lemmatization - in linguistics is the process of grouping together inflected forms of a word so they can be analyzed as a single item, identified by the word's lemma, or dictionary form; (eg. walk [lemma], walks, walked, walking)

This is a place to post words you read and had to look up or simply enjoyed the rare word drop in something you read.

Post only the word(s) in the title bar, and the definition(s) in the post body along with the title/author of what you were reading when you encountered it. Posts are not intended as book reviews, but the comments section is free game.

The intention here is to expand vocabulary, motivate more active reading, and to see what others are reading. Please do not comment critically about the reading or vocabulary of others here. This is a place for English words from anyone of any age, background, or native language.

If you have an Android device and use F-Droid for free and open source, ad free apps, Galnet Dictionary is a free, offline dictionary for your device (not just an API for a service).
