defugalty
A great difficulty; a quandry. It is not located in any modern dictionary, and the references to the word are, for the most part, quite obscure. However, this word remains in common use and most individuals who use it say that they have used it since they were young.
The roots of this word are uncertain; some claim that it is a deformation of "difficulty" (which would be quite grievous for a typographical error) while others maintain that it is a derivation of "fugue." (However, "defugue" then becomes a nonsensical abstraction, as TheDiscouragingWord.com has pointed out.)
Since this word is not located in modern dictionaries, it is often mis-spelled. (See Defugilty.) However, the spelling found in all the internet references available (most of which are located on university webservers) is "defugalty."

Defugalty - dee fuy gull tee
A serious problem, similar to difficulty, but more intense and often involving two or more parties in disagreement. Synonyms - dispute, discord, squabble, conflict, feud.
My wife's Finnish grandmother used this word, perhaps a mispronunciation of the word "difficulty". Nevertheless, two generations of descendants used the word to describe problems of a serious nature, and not just a minor difficulty. When my wife learned that it is not a real word, she was surprised and said, "Well, it should be".

TLDU
Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
Me: Woah! TLDU!
