New Words

English is a flexible language and meanings can be fluid, this is one of its great strengths. Meaning trumps syntax, rules, tradition, ... as it should. Here's some new uses.

GAGA Girls, I think are bar girls that dress up extravagantly.


Modish, modern but not too modern.
Chicology, the study of chicks.
I had no idea what "spunlace" was, but by web search it seems to be a flame resistant fabric, who knew?
"Rich English" this is the language spoken by the Bush and Romney families.

O
Pasta holic, a benign addition.
Originality food, new but with connections to origins.
