n. [NL., fr. Ankylostoma, var. of Agchylostoma, generic name
of one genus of the parasitic nematodes.] (Med.)
A disease caused by the hookworm parasites of the genus

difficult. We call a thing arduous when it requires
strenuous and persevering exertion, like that of one
who is climbing a precipice; as, an arduous task, an

feelings; it is still harder to subdue our will; but
it is an arduous undertaking to control the unruly and
contending will of others."
