I'm open to change and evolution but I kinda like my dictionary to be stodgy. And I see they added "nocebo"..... no·ce·bo\n-s-b\ Function: noun Etymology: Latin, I will be harmful; after placebo Date: 1961
: a harmless substance that when taken by a patient is associated with harmful effects due to negative expectations or the psychological condition of the patient
Oh man...the Australian dictionary is about to be rewritten if things go ahead as planned! The literacy council has announced that they are considering teaching kids the American form of English as the proper English is considered too hard for kids to learn these days! I just think the kids are too lazy to learn!
I don't want the language to change! I love spelling neighbour with a U, colour with a U, tyre with a y and spelling metre and fibre with the r and e around the other way! And all the other words we seem to spell differently!
Seems like the environment is finally right.
