ZOMG! New Words Added to Oxford Dictionary

0 comments

ZOMG! New words were recently added to the Oxford Dictionary!

Now I have to start referring to “Livestrong bracelets” as “awareness bracelets“? Although I am glad to see that infographic is now a real word. If only Chrome’s auto-correct knew that! And now I can officially dis someone by telling them that I’ll unfollow them. Speaking of which, I wonder if unfriend is a word? (It is.)

Anyway, head over to Oxford Dictionaries to see the full list for yourself. The list is not NSFW. It’s a dictionary after all! Be careful how you use the words, though. As my brother told me: “Just because a word is in the dictionary doesn’t mean it’s proper English.”
