It may not be Webster’s New Millennium Dictionary, but Collins Dictionaries officially recognized “facebooking” as a word.
According to VentureBeat, facebooking made the cut after topping 4,400 submissions, as Collins began crowdsourcing entries for its dictionaries in mid-July.
Other words that were added to Collins Dictionaries, as reported by VentureBeat, include:
- bashtag
- BBM
- Bing
- bridezilla
- captcha
- crowdfunding
- cyberstalking
- FaceTime
- fanboy
- frenemy
- hyperconnectivity
- livestream
- photobomb
- thanx
- twitterer
“Mobydickulous” and “Tebowing,” however, were left off Collins’ list, for now, VentureBeat reported.
