Today's word is skullduggery, spelled as one word S-K-U-L-L-D-U-G-G-E-R-Y.

Skulduggery is a noun that means underhanded or unscrupulous behavior, also a devious device or trick. Here is the word used in a sentence.

There was a whiff of skulduggery surrounding the real-estate deal, since the building managed to pass inspection even though everyone knew it wasn't up to code.

The word skulduggery, which can be spelled with one or two "l"s (skulduggery or skullduggery) was first documented in the mid-1800s century with the spelling scull-duggery. Etymologists aren't sure exactly how the word arrived in English, but despite the macabre imagery conjured by the word's parts, they do not believe it had anything to do with skulls. It is possibly derived from the now-very-rare word sculduddery, a term once used to refer to gross or lewd conduct, but unfortunately the origins of that word are also unknown.
