Pretty sure that's the first word added to the Oxford English Dictionary in a while that I've actually agreed with having be put in, it makes sense unlike a couple years ago when the word of the year was a smilely face! That isn't even a word or a language!
Anyway I'll certainly get a chuckle now when I see that in future additions of that dictionary.

The OED records English as it is used so when a word enters the language and then meets whatever criteria the OED have, then it enters the dictionary.

Interesting, still doesn't explain some obscure words which end up in there whilst other more commonly known ones don't. Regardless this is definetly a good addition to the dictionary. For amusement's sake if nothing else. |
