《牛津英語詞典》被稱爲The World's Most Trusted Dictionary. 每個季度或是年底，它都會公佈一些時髦的英語新詞!來看看它最近放出了哪些新詞吧：
TBH, not everyone will be bovvered by all of the 1,000 new words added to the Oxford English Dictionary (OED) in its latest quarterly update, which reveals current trends in the use of language.
在最近的季度更新裏，牛津英語詞典收錄了1000個新詞。老實說，不是每個人都會在意這些新詞，但它們反映了當前語言運用的趨勢。
(TBH什麼意思?往下看)
Entries include air-punching - the action of thrusting a clenched fist into the air in elation or triumph - and bovver - part of the catchphrase of comedian Catherine Tate’s teenage character Lauren.
新詞條包括air-punching(向空中揮拳，指的是在興高采烈或取得成功的時候向空氣中揮舞一下握緊的拳頭這個動作)和bovver(喜劇演員凱瑟琳·泰特主演的凱特秀裏的一個青少年角色勞倫的口頭禪)。
注：bovver這個詞其實是凱特琳獨創的bothered的變形，當她覺得煩了怒了囧了，就會說“Am I bovvered?”、"Do I look bovvered?"
A number of internet slang acronyms such as ICYMI (in case you missed it), TBH (to be honest), and FWIW (for what it’s worth) also make the list.
許多有趣的俚語縮寫也位列其中，如ICYMI(如果你錯過了)，TBH(老實說)以及FWIW(無論如何)。
