New words for Collins English Dictionary


LONDON (AP) - Chavs, yarcos and neds - these are the new tribes of Britain, as defined by compilers of the latest edition of the Collins English Dictionary.

I've never even heard of half of these....but congrats to the dictionary for adding words to a dictionary for future generations to read and laugh at

I remember as a child learning new words, that our teacher would have use them in a sentence to convey it's proper use.

For example:

Grimm is a retrosexual.

Does anyone disagree?

and yet "chaz" hasn't made the cut on dictionary.com (means lame). I use it alot, and everyone, even those who haven't heard it before, get it. "OMG, what a chaz"....."He's a total chaz"....etc.
