More on @OED's teen-slang effort: "In a society wrought by intergenerational inequality, it is a wonderful message to the young, to tell them that their daily lives matter and are worthy of recording." theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Thrilled to be alerted by the OED that my novels have supplied useful quotations for the use of "gutbucket", "brotherliness", "unpreventably" and "any old how", among others. #OED90

Having access to the OED online through institutional subscription is the No. 1 thing I like about working for a university. For those who will now have access, this is great news. twitter.com/OED/status/104…

How sick* is the OED? Deliver a rejuvenating dose by contributing a word to our latest appeal, this time focusing on the language of children and the youth. We could do with some help. Bare help. #YouthSlangAppeal
