Why not look it up in a dictionary and find out? Or Google it.

1. We don't deal with content.
2. I've never heard the word "tenureship". Not saying it isn't a real word,
I'm just saying I've never heard it.

hi Juicy Jello,

I think you are looking in the wrong place - you need a Dictionary, for
example:
'AskOxford: tenure'
(http://www.askoxford.com/concise_oed/tenure?view=uk)
'tenure - definition of tenure by the Free Online Dictionary, Thesaurus
and Encyclopedia.' (http://www.thefreedictionary.com/tenure)

My knowledge of the correct terminology is sadly lacking so other more
informed people may disagree with my below answer...
To answer your question, I would say no, "tenureship" is not a word.
The word "tenure" is a noun and the meaning of the word incorporates the
concept "�to hold�" while other nouns such as "apprenticeship"
effectively use "ship" as a suffix to create a similar meaning when
attached to the base noun of "'apprentice'
(http://www.askoxford.com/concise_oed/apprentice?view=uk)/'owner'
(http://www.askoxford.com/concise_oed/owner?view=uk)".

hth
Rob

I've never heard it, either. What is usually granted is "tenure," period.
