New Words in the English Language
I purchased the 2003 World Almanac and among many interesting facts, I have
found a list of several words that have been added to the Merriam-Webster
Dictionary. I thought I should share some of them with you:
Blunt: a cigar that has been hollowed out and filled with marijuana
Booty, also Bootie: slang buttocks
Duh: 1) used to express actual or feigned ignorance or stupidity; 2)used
derisively to indicate that something just stated is all too obvious or
self-evident
Hottie: a physically attractive person
Noogie: the act of rubbing one's knickles on a person's head so as to produce a
mildly painful sensation
Tree Hugger: an environmentalist; especially: an advocate for the preservation
of woodlands
I don't think I have much to say about all that.
