Oxford Dictionary’s 2009 Word of the Year: ‘Unfriend’
11.18.09 | Kunochan | Permalink | 2 CommentsThe editors of the New Oxford American Dictionary have chosen “unfriend” as its “2009 Word of the Year,” beating out other Internet-oriented neologisms such as “hashtag,” “netbook,” “paywall” and “sexting.”
Tolkien aficionados may remember the word from The Silmarillion, where it is used twice (once in the form “unfriendship”).
