"A work that aspires ... to the condition of art should carry its justification in every line" (Joseph Conrad).Labor usually implies human work, especially of a hard physical or intellectual nature: "garner the fruits of their own labors" (Roger Casement). Toil applies principally to strenuous, fatiguing labor: "I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat" (Winston S. Churchill). Drudgery suggests dull, wearisome, or monotonous work: "the drudgery of penning definitions and marking quotations for transcription" (Thomas Macaulay). Travail connotes arduous work involving pain or suffering: "prisoners of the splendor and travail of the earth" (Henry Beston). |

| work (wûrk) The transfer of energy from one object to another, especially in order to make the second object move in a certain direction. Work is equal to the amount of force multiplied by the distance over which it is applied. If a force of 10 newtons, for example, is applied over a distance of 3 meters, the work is equal to 30 newtons per meter, or 30 joules. The unit for measuring work is the same as that for energy in any system of units, since work is simply a transfer of energy. Compare energypower |
