    No entry found for "luctate" in the dictionary.

    jamcracker said the same thing on ecphonesis.

    see luctation, then...very close to lactate/lactation...hence the play on words. Latin is luctatio.

    maybe try an unabridged dictionary with those fun obsolete words, or take a useless Functional Linguistics class that teaches overly complex words to describe use of language.

    somewhat like the "foreign" language of Achebe's signature...
