Oxford Dictionary Update: New Words To Add

It's that time again! Time to get the "official" new words that will soon be accepted as legitimate words. New words like “micropig”. Micropig is just one of the new words/terms  that became official as part of ODO’s most recent quarterly update of new words and definitions, which includes “soul patch,” “hosepipe ban” and “vajazzle.” The new Oxford Online Dictionary now recognizes words like “hot yoga,” “brah,” “group yoga,” “tweeps” and “lifecasting” are just a few of the new words.

Here are some of the new words with their definitions:
