Lanyard" is a flexible line of rope -- or wire rope or even a strap. At each end of the lanyard you can find a connector, a device for latching the lanyard on to different pieces of equipment, other gear and the like. For example, a lanyard can be sewed to connect a body harness to a decceleration device. A lanyard can be used to link up a lifeline. A lanyard can be used to gear up an anchor. In other words, the uses for a lanyard in the context of boating or sailing virtually are limitless. Tis a rope, just another name for it

I work in theatre and we use lanyards to hang our backstage passeson. The lanyard hangs around our neck and the pass is attached to it. This is just one use or application of a lanyard and you may wish to search out other definitions as this is a trade specific definition.
For questions like this I recommend using an online dictionary as opposed to wasting your points asking a question,,, just a thought.
I once asked a guy at workif he had a lanyard and he said "I am lanyard poor" meaning no.

A lanyard, also spelled laniard, is a rope or cord often worn around the neck or wrist to carry something.
People generally hang there keys from them.
Lanyards have started to appear on consumer electronics devices. With increasing miniaturisation, many digital cameras, MP3 players, and USB memory sticks include lanyards, providing easy portability and insurance against loss or dropping. The Apple iPod headphones incorporate the audio signal into the lanyard, meaning it doubles up as headphone cords as well.
Lanyard can also refer to the flat plastic string more commonly known as gimp.

Did you make Lanyards in YMCA camp when you were a kid? I remember fondly weaving lanyards out of long plastic ropey things. I think we also made them after school in the afterschool programs.
Does anyone know what that plastic rope was called?
