If you are an avid Words With Friends player on the iPhone or Android phones this post might please you. The authorities have added a few new words to the Oxford Dictionary of the English Language. Don’t think the word you use in your texts or tweets are “real words”, think again! These are the latest additions to the dictionary:
couch surfing
ego-surfing
hentai
la-la land
LOL
meep
muffin top
OMG
party-crashing
cyberbullying
cybersecurity
clickjacking
sexting
woot
tbh (short for ‘to be honest’)
fnarr fnarr (described as “textspeak for sniggering”)
tanorexia
trolleyed
nom nom
bromance
sammich
prolly
tmi (short for ‘too much information’)
rumour mill
light-bulb moment
wassup
♥
Yes, I said it… ♥ was added to the dictionary…WOW. I wonder what will be added to the dictionary next? Perhaps LMAO will become a real word in the english language. That would make my life so much easier!
With love,
