lemplot

lemplot is a term that can refer to several different concepts, most commonly a fictional device or concept within specific narratives, or a portmanteau word.

In some science fiction and fantasy contexts, a lemplot might describe a plot device or narrative element that is deliberately convoluted, confusing, or intentionally nonsensical to the point of being a source of humor or intentional plot holes. This usage is informal and context-dependent, often appearing in online discussions or fan wikis related to specific works of fiction. It is not a formally recognized literary term.

Alternatively, "lemplot" could be a portmanteau, a word formed by combining parts of two other words. Without further context, it is difficult to determine the specific words it might be derived from. For example, it could potentially combine "lemma" (a proposition proved or assumed as a basis for further argument) and "plot," suggesting a narrative structure based on lemmas, or a blend of unrelated words creating a unique meaning within a specific community or work.

Due to the varied and often informal nature of its usage, "lemplot" does not have a single, universally accepted definition and is best understood by examining the specific context in which it is encountered. Its meaning is fluid and dependent on the creator or community using the term.
