Word of the Day 8/7/13

Emolument (noun)
e·mol·u·ment [ih-mol-yuh-muhnt]


noun
profit, salary, or fees from office or employment; compensation for services: Tips are an emolument in addition to wages.

Synonyms: earnings, pay, recompense, stipend, honorarium.

Origin: 1470–80; < Latin ēmolumentum advantage, benefit, equivalent to ēmol ( ere ) to grind out, produce by grinding ( ē- e-1 + molere to grind; see mill1 ) + -u-, variant before labials of -i- -i- + -mentum -ment

Now YOU come up with a sentence (or fic? or graphic?) that best illustrates the word.

I got some words out...

I managed to cobble something together despite my current bout of apathy. Also on the good news front, I managed to not get picked for jury duty, so that isn't hanging over my head anymore.

I pass the torch to [livejournal.com profile] haldoor. Go knock 'em dead, babe.
