'Web 2.0' declared millionth word in English language
Neologism created every 98 minutes, says language monitor –
which admits tally of English words an estimate.
It could have been "coddies", "chengguan", "slumdog" or even
"fundoo". "Jai Ho!" would have been fun. Even "noob" wouldn't
have been that bad. But when a group of US wordsmiths in
Texas claimed today that the millionth word in the English
language was Web 2.0, there must have been a collective sigh
of disappointment among those lexicographers who hadn't
already declared the idea preposterous.

The Global Language Monitor (GLM), based in Austin,
calculated that a neologism is created on average every 98
minutes and that "Web 2.0", a term for the next generation of
internet applications, should be formally crowned the millionth
word.
Paul JJ Payack, the president and chief word analyst of the
Global Language Monitor, said that the contenders to be the
millionth word had come from Silicon Valley, India, China, and
Poland, as well as Australia, Canada, the US and the UK.
"English has become a universal means of communication.
Never before have so many people been able to communicate
so easily with so many others," he said.
