New Words
The Oxford Dictionary is adding the following words: “twerk,” “derp,” “selfie,” and “phablet"
I didn't know what twerking was until Miley Cyrus let me know the other day. I know what a selfie is, and it doesn't take a genius to figure out "phablet", but I did have to look up "derp" (speech regarded as meaningless or stupid, or to comment on a foolish or stupid action.)
