Yeah... a word is added in a dictionary if it is just used. "To decide which words to include in the dictionary and to determine what they mean, Merriam-Webster editors study the language as it's used. They carefully monitor which words people use most often and how they use them." So, just because people say something doesn't make it right. I mean... bling is now a word. That's like saying Roar and Meow is a word. |
I don't want to derail the thread any further but how did you expect words to be formed in the first place? Look people are now using the word 'computer' people have to use it for it to become a word worthy of the dictionary, a committee doesn't just sit around and make words for people to use.
