The Oxford English Dictionary just added some new words to their dictionary which includes about 65,000 words at the moment. Some of the words include mankini (as you can see above), retweet and  sexting. I always wanted to know how they decided which words would actaully go into the dictionary and what the process was like? Do you have any words that should be in the dictionary or some that should have never seen the light of day? Let us know and we will put them up.
