Who first coined the word f actoid? When and where does the triple witching hour occur? What do the acronyms DINK and NIMBY stand for? On what kid's show was the cry Cowabunga first heard?

In The Oxford Dictionary of New Words, Sara Tulloch examines over two thousand new words and phrases tha t have become part of our daily lives in the last decade, in 750 articles that p rovide pronunciation, definition, etymology, informal history, and sample senten ces.
