The winning word, “goblin mode” is a zhargon term describing “a behavior such as laziness or entitlement, so someone who refuses norms or social expectations”, writes BBC.
This was one of the three selected words from Oxford lekiscographers.
Thousands of people came out of “goblin mode” to vote, as this phrase won a devastating majority of 318,956 votes, or 93% of total.
According to Oxford University Press, which publishes Oxford English Dictionary, this is a zhargon term that describes <x0 minus behavior like laziness or percussion - someone who rejects social norms or expectations”.
The term began to appear online in 2009 but became viral earlier this year.
As restrictions against Coddy-19 eased, the term continued to spread as people realized they did not want to return with their lifestyle as before.
In second place, there was a 14.484 vote, followed by the word # IstandWith with 8,639 votes.
Last year's word was "vax," echoing the interest in the vaccine after the release of the anti-corrannavirus vaccine. /Periscopi/
