Word of Mouth (A Body of Work): (v) Coinages
What is the OED’s 2023 word of the year? What do etymologists do and what are the challenges of doing etymology? What is podcast chemistry and how can you recognise it? You know that language changes, but what can you anticipate about the future of English? These and other questions are addressed in this page, the fifth page in our Word of Mouth, non-literary body of work. Even if you decide not to work with the body of work, we are confident that you will find something here to support your teaching of English A: Language and Literature.
