This makes me worry about the future of the English language


New words image


OXFORD just added some srsly buzzworthy words to their online dictionary – squee! With influences ranging from technology to fashion, there is something for everyone in the update.

just take note of the words in blue, they are very new in the world of the English language. Sorry, you cant find them in your dictionary. Below are the others

CLICK ON EACH WORDS TO LEARN ITS MEANING.

If you are someone who always leaves prepping for a party to the last minute, you’ll be relieved to know that you can now click and collect, so you can avoid a mad trolley dash to grab some cake pops or blondies before your guests arrive. And don’t forget some pear cider to wash down all those tasty treats.
Even if your party turns into an omnishambles, full of people in double denim doing dad dancing, try not to worry. You’ll soon feel better after a bit of me time: a few minutes in the child’s pose, a chilled michelada, and a Nordic noir will have you feeling as right as rain.


The additions may have only just entered the dictionary, but we’ve been watching them for a while now, tracking how and where they are used. 

Several fashion terms also make their Oxford dictionary debut this season including flatform, geek chic, and jorts. Jorts is a good example of a blend (also known as a portmanteau), a word which is a combination of two words in which part of one or both words is omitted (with jorts being a blend of jeans and shorts). And it’s in good company, with babymoon and fauxhawk also entering the dictionary.
HERE COMES MORE NEW WORD IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE.

NOW GO out there on facebook, twitter, myspace etc and fire them with words, words, and words...BUT DONT BE STINGY.  Use the SHARE button below for others to see

Mankind, an amazing creature

Man is very impatient in nature and is highly inclined towards corruption. He is also very fretful when evil touches him. He worries a lot ...
