Amazeballs! Dictionary adds tweetup, could ‘nom’ be next?

A whole lot of new words have just made their way into the latest addition of the UK dictionary. After having a read through some of the words, there’s a few that would be hard to live without as well as a couple that I’d never heard of. Here’s eight words that could help next time you’re writing a tweet as well as a few Tweet2eat couldn’t live without and a new one we’d like to see enter the dictionary.

 

1. Twittersphere - same as the Twitterverse

You can submit any word you believe should be added to the dictionary. If it’s accepted, your word will be published on collinsdictionary.com within a few weeks. I have submitted the word ‘nom’ as a word to express enjoyment of a meal on twitter. Yes, it hasn’t been added yet! There seems to be some precedent with ‘vom’ as another recent addition to the Collins Dictionary. In a few days, Collins editors will let us know whether the word ‘nom’ has been successfully accepted.
