Definition of peculation

 peculation \peck-yuh-LAY-shun\ (noun) - Embezzlement
   
   "Although Mina was convinced that her peculation, though regular, was small enough that it wouldn't be noticed,
little realizing that careful track was being kept of each tiny irregularity."
   
   From the Latin "peculium," meaning "property managed by a person incapable of legal ownership."
In the early Middle Ages, "peculium" referred to the personal belongings of a monk or serf, people who technically didn't own property.
It appears that "peculium" is an ancestor of "peculari," a Latin verb meaning "to misappropriate peculium" or to misuse property
that you don't own.
