Mirriam webster added about 100 new words to its dictionary today. The news says it has to be a word that is a part of “everyday” speech or has “staying power.” Some of the words I’ve never even heard of…
Some words added; unibrow, drama queen, bling, himbo, google (as a verb), soul patch, gastric bypass, ringtone, super size, spyware and of coarse, mouse potato!!
There are people (lexicographers) who are paid to sit there and decide which words to add to a dictionary! I wonder if they ever drop any words.
