SA Friends- Can Anyone Name :Dictionary crowned Word of the Year Is?
it was wOOt hehe
Reply:Actually it is w00t, Merriam Websters dictionary word of the year. I doubt any other dictionary will pick it. No-one knows how to say it 'cos of the two zeros!


Apparently it is now 'clever' to replace certain letters with numbers which somehow look similar eg A - 4. Really smart, I don't think. Difficult to read and more difficult to type than the letter itself.
Reply:I didnt even know that word existed until now...


Thanks for the link cakes..

Reply:Eish...I'm always late.......that's correct - "w00t" we go!!!!!!
