Episode 20: Dictionary Words for 2020 - a podcast by Keri Schroeder

Dictionaries are an ever-changing record of language, constantly being
updated, amended and added to. This goes for all dictionaries:
Merriam-Webster, Oxford English Dictionary, Collin’s.

Updates to the dictionary can be new words entirely, or amendments for new
meanings of existing words. As you can imagine, 2020 was a heck of a year
with both Merriam-Webster and OED adding over 1,000 words, and
Merriam-Webster just added over 500 more at the end of January 2021.
