Vacay is now an actual word!

Toss out your old dictionary, it's no longer up-to-date!

Back in April, the Merriam-Webster dictionary added 640 words and now we've got a few more to add to the list that originally included "Swole", "Unplug" (meaning to turn of your tech), and "Buzzy" among others.

Now we add the following to the list:

  • Vacay
  • Tallboy
  • Dad Joke
  • Pickleball
  • Deep State
  • Escape Room
  • They (referring to a person's gender who identifies as non-binary)
  • Haircut (referring to a reduction in the value of an asset, like "I took a haircut on the car I just bought from some random person on Craig's list").
