world The word of the year 2015 is ‘-ism’, apparently
So it turns out the ‘word of the year’ isn’t a word at all…
well, it’s part of a word.
According to Merriam-Webster the word of the year is
‘-ism‘, the three letter suffix.
However not just any ‘-ism’, but rather a few specific
words which the dictionary company say were heavily
searched during 2015.
Socialism, feminism, communism, fascism, racism,
capitalism and, of course, terrorism were some of the
most-search-for words this past year.
Perhaps this suggests that people are becoming
interested in some of the wider ideologies and movements
which quietly (and sometimes loudly) impact our lives
everyday?
Merriam-Webster said spikes in searches for certain
words often followed major events – such as when a
video which surfaced in November showed a white
police officer shooting a black teenager, which was
followed by multiple searches of the word ‘racism’.
Searches for the word ‘fascism’ have also apparently
increased since Donald Trump’s presidential campaign
got under way.
Peter Sokolowski, the company’s editor at large,
commented that ‘ism words’ often collide to increase
popularity.
For example acts of terrorism are often followed by
heavy use of the word ‘fascism’ in the media, while
feminism and racism are often discussed side-by-side.
‘Fascism we more closely associate as the response to
various acts of terrorism. After the attacks in Paris and
the attacks in Colorado Springs and in San Bernardino,
and because of Donald Trump’s proposal to ban Muslims,
we then see the word fascism spike,’ he said.

But rather than empty the cash register, this person
chose a different kind of loot.
The man is accused of waiting until all the staff went
home and locked the restaurant up, before eating six
