This would be more troubling if it were Merriam-Webster. The Oxford English Dictionary is a purely descriptive, rather than prescriptive, dictionary. It tells us how words are used, not how they should be used. So whenever a word attains a certain level of currency in some significant part of the English-speaking world, it makes the cut.

In fact, year after year it is reported by the media, usually as a lighthearted or humorous segment, that some very surprising selections have found their way into the Oxford English Dictionary. I remember a skit on Jimmy Kimmel a year or two ago in which some old fuddy-duddy speaking in a trans-Atlantic accent announced the OED's Word of the Year and then said with a sigh that he was going to kill himself. The audience laughed, of course, but it's only really funny when you don't understand the purpose of the OED.

This does seem to be going a bit far, though. I'm not sure that this really qualifies as a word. If it does, just about every symbol or signifier is a word, and that can't be right.

In any event, they've been doing shit like this for years. Last year's WOTY was "vape" for Christ's sake. Before that it was "selfie," and a while back it was "GIF." If all of you declaring the end of civilization are only now finding out about this, I sincerely doubt your literacy.

I would also like to see a rigorous argument explaining why "GIF" and "unfriend" are ok, but this isn't.

Well, it's not the 'end of civilization', but it is certainly a retreat towards a preceding form of picture thinking that depends on natural forms for expression (a face, hand, etc) instead of being an expression of pure thought, which completely negates the physical signifier as something existing on its own.

In a broad sense, yes, but we do make distinctions between verbal and nonverbal language. Word is a name specific to signs that have both a sonorous (not sure if right word) and a graphed signifier, and a graphed signifier that corresponds to the sounds inside an alphabet or something equivalent to one.

So no, in the current system an emoji probably does not qualify as a word. This could be pointing towards a different writing system though. I'm curious.

>Don't you see that the whole aim of Newspeak is to narrow the range of thought? In the end we shall make thought-crime literally impossible, because there will be no words in which to express it. Every concept that can ever be needed will be expressed by eactly one word, with its meaning rigidly defined and all its subsidiary meanings rubbed out and forgotten. . . . The process will still be continuing long after you and I are dead. Every year fewer and fewer words, and the range of consciousness always a little smaller. Even now, of course, there's no reason or excuse for commiting thought-crime. It's merely a question of self-discipline, reality-control. But in the end there won't be any need even for that. . . . Has it ever occcured to you, Winston, that by the year 2050, at the very latest, not a single human being will be alive who could understand such a conversation as we are having now?

Let's see what Oxford Dictionary has chosen previous years.

Oh, looks like there has always been meme words that people don't remember a year after.

But please continue fueling up the "controversy" if you want.
