The ImitaTED Radio Hour investigates the biggest and smallest questions of our time with the extemporaneous help of the greatest thinkers of the 21st century.
The Oxford English Dictionary defines …”The Dictionary” as a book that lists the words of a language and gives their meaning.
With over a million words in the english language, and about 7000 new words created every year, who decides which of these words get into the dictionary and which are tossed aside? How can we trust that the words we’re using are truly the best words for the moment?
Our guest today is an amateur lexicographer who has pushed back against the deep-seated dictionary industry to promote what he says is a new way forward for words.
Mark Meer has established his own dictionary and has filled it with his own words. In doing so, he is reshaping the way that we, as a people, interact. Much to the chagrin of the dictionary establishment.
