Parsing inflected forms may not always work as expected. If the following does not give the correct word, try Latin Words or Perseus.

mōlīmentum, i, n. [molior], a great exertion, effort, endeavor, attempt, undertaking (good prose, but not in Cic.): magno cum molimento procedunt, Sisenn. ap. Non. 142, 5: neque se exercitum sine magno commeatu atque molimento in unum locum contrahere posse, * Caes. B. G. 1, 34, 3: motam certe sede suā parvi molimenti adminiculis, by machines of little power, Liv. 5, 22: eo minoris molimenti ea claustra esse, would cost the less labor, id. 37, 14: rex magni molimenti est, that has a great spirit of enterprise, Sen. Cons. ad Marc. 11, 3.
