ELUMBATED
Adjective. Now jocular. Rare. Late 18th century.
[from Latin elumbis having a dislocated hip (from e out + lumbus loin).]
Weakened in the loins.
It's not very often that a word's definition confuses me more than the word itself, but I am a little puzzled by elumbated - what exactly does 'weakened in the loins' mean? Nor is it helped by the fact that there seem to be very few uses of this 'rare' and 'jocular' word - the OED only lists two: an entry in a lexicon from the 18th century, and from the Confess. of Medwin (1882) the rather perplexing quote "Our elumbated tailor came forward." Hmm.
Such scant use, therefore, leaves me to surmise at the exact meaning of 'weakened in the loins', and I must assume it has something to do with one's declining efficacity in the realm of procreation, perhaps as one ages. That's a good definition, right?
Elumbated:
Having declined in efficacity in the realm (art?) of procreation.
Good. I'm glad we've cleared that up.

DeleteThis is enough for me. I want to write software that anyone can use, and virtually everyone who has an internet connected device with a screen can use apps written in JavaScript. JavaScript Training in Chennai JavaScript was used for little more than mouse hover animations and little calculations to make static websites feel more interactive. Let’s assume 90% of all websites using JavaScript use it in a trivial way. That still leaves 150 million substantial JavaScript Training in Chennai JavaScript applications.
