WORDS

June is coming. Nothing interesting in this month will happen, although I found a strange article here.

Have you read it?
...

So, some people keep on tracking words in the great mass of information and they count approximately the exact number of existing words. My favorite one comes from (what a surprise!) the vocabulary of Internet communities.

"Defriend". While typing I'm using now spell checker and it underlines the word. So we have to wait so that defriending should become an official, widely accepted expression for "deleting somebody from your friends in iWiW, Facebook, MyVip, PerfSpot, etc".

Poor students of English language! By the next semester there will be more than 1 million English words. At least, they have the choice of synonyms.
