Inanition - a podcast by Word of the Day

Inanition is a noun that refers to ‘exhaustion or a lack of enthusiasm.’

Our word of the day comes from the Latin word Inanis (ee NON ees) which means ‘empty’ or ‘void.’ When a person suffers from inanition, they are lacking in vigor or stamina.

It wasn’t easy to get work done in a state of inanition. Having no energy all day long has a way of slowing things down considerably.
