There was quite the hubbub among Washington journalists about the Associated Press’ recent decision to remove the hyphen from “e-mail” in its stylebook. But I’d argue that the list of annual additions to the Oxford English Dictionary is of far wider importance. As always happens with a list of new words, there are some surprises (why were banh mi or headline not in the OED before?), some words that will ruffle a few feathers (did the religious among us needed Second Coming defined?), additions which feel pretty dated (muffin top — slightly behind on Seinfeld, are we, guys?), and new words which you know that the editors are just putting in to mess with us (wassup).
