(noun) A slang word that is used when talking about an issue, problem, or dilemma, but don't want to use a word as harsh. The meaning is similar, but the connotation is lighter.

Sam: "Do you know the solution?"
Ron: "Yes."
Sam: "So... what's the lemma?"
Part of a mathematical proof that draws too much attention so readers have much more difficulty in understanding the whole thing than before.
