New words added to the dictionary in 2016
New words added to the dictionary in 2016 – The Oxford English Dictionary (OED) is updated four times a year, every March, June, September, and December.
The material added to the dictionary includes revised versions of existing entries (which replace the older versions), and new words and senses both within the alphabetical sequence of revised entries and also across the whole A to Z range.
Submissions from readers of the OED are generated by a web-based form (see below quiz).
When a reader presses the submit button a message appears on-screen confirming that the data has been captured successfully, which means that the evidence has reached the OED.
Providing the submission does not duplicate evidence already held in-house, it is filed electronically.
The data is therefore available to Dictionary editors when they come to draft or revise the relevant entry.
Readers can check whether a quotation has been included by consulting the online edition of the OED, provided they, their public library, or their institution, subscribe to the service.
The revision is a huge task, and in order to meet tough deadlines Oxford regrets that it cannot enter into correspondence about individual submissions.
Found this great site to help me learn real English in a fun way – JUST LOVE Efl PodBlog!!!
Loving this site – so helpful and so real!
Please can you do domething on asking difficult questions please?
I’m really impressed with your writing skills and also with the layout on your weblog.
Keep up the nice quality writing, it
is rare to see a great blog like this one today.
I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my
own blog and was wondering what is needed to
get setup? I’m assuming having a blog like yours
would cost a pretty penny? The set up you have is fabulous – I use it on the computer, the iPad and on my phone and all works fab.
I’m not very web smart so I’m not 100% sure.
Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
This is a fabulous site, with great podcasts that are so real, unlike what we get in our English courses in my country.
This has really helped me, especially your fun quizzes and vodcasts – keep up the brilliant work!!
I can’yt wait for my Learning Crush to be available -me and my frineds will all sign up to learn English your way – which is the best way.
