ZOMG, Twittersphere now officially English words

"ZOMG, unfollow her because she overshares NSFW stuff on the Twittersphere from her lappy!" — is now a modern English sentence accepted by Oxford Dictionaries Online. "The world of computers and social networking continues to be a major influence on the English language," explains the blog of The Oxford Dictionary Online, which is affiliated with the Oxford English Dictionary. A layman’s non-techie translation of this article’s lead sentence is: "Oh my God, stop tracking what she posts on the social networking site Twitter because she keeps sharing too much personal information that is not safe for work, all just from her laptop computer." Other new official words that have crept into the English language from cyberspace include "badware," "breadcrumb trail," "infographic," "network neutrality," and "permalink." "ZOMG" and "overshare" call to mind the initialisms "OMG" and "TMI" which were officially added into the Oxford English Dictionary in March of this year. According to Mashable: "Dictionaries have been acknowledging emerging Internet vocabulary since 2004 or before. That year, ‘blog’ made the top of Merriam Webster’s Word of the Year list. ‘Facebook’ was Collins’s top word three years later, and in 2009, ‘unfriend’ was the Oxford Dictionary’s top pick." But as some commenters have pointed out, many netizens prefer calling what Oxford Dictionaries Online describes as the “Twittersphere" as the “Twitterverse" instead. — RSJ, GMA News
