Facebook to Be Added to 2008 Collins English Dictionary
According to Ananova, Facebook has been officially added to the 2008 Collins English Dictionary, not only as a noun, but verb too! “Pimp” and “poke” have new definitions in the dictionary related to Facebook. In the dictionary “pimp” defined as something to make your page more attractive and “poke” is defined as getting someones attention.
Which social networking website will be the next to be added to the dictionary?
If facebook added into the dictionary, I believe other social bookmark sites also will claim that their site’s name deserve to be included too.
How about the usage? Does local english teach ever heard about it? Wondering if it was used in exam paper, the teacher will rounded or mark the word with ??? Kekeke
wow, now that’s interesting, wonder what else will be added to dictionaries
Ho! Ho! Ho!
May Joy be your gift at Christmas and may Faith, Hope and Love be your treasures in the New Year.
