I've wondered why people favor a pluralized gerund over the perfectly good alternative "lessons". Probably people who use this word are just mimicking a speech affect, or signalling a verbal register (dynamic manager-of-action)? "Learnings" will probably become as unremarkable as using "impact" to mean influence or effect. > While I acknowledge that English is a living language... We can be both descriptivist and cultivate good style (whatever that means to each of us).
