"I have nothing to do with either."

From a report in a paper about the new words in the Collins english dictionary:

CHAVS, Asbos and property porn are all features of modern living which make it into the latest edition of a leading dictionary published today.

The 1,500 new words in the Collins English Dictionary show the latest trends in language and culture.

The ubiquitous "chav" is defined as "a young working-class person who dresses in casual sports clothes (perhaps from Romany chavi - a child)".

The dictionary also includes "chavette" (the female equivalent), and the adjectives "chavish" and "chavtastic" (suitable for or designed for chavs).

A host of similar tribes are also included - for example "skanger" (similar definition, but Irish slang), "yarco" (East Anglian) and "ned" (Scottish).

"Asbo" - the acronym for the anti-social behaviour order - is defined as "a civil order made against a persistently anti-social individual which restricts his or her activities or movements, a breach of which results in criminal charges".

"Property porn" is "a genre of escapist TV programmes, magazine features, etc. showing desirable properties for sale, esp those in idyllic locations, or in need of renovation, or both".

Sport

Sport is well represented in the list of new words.

"Tapping-up", "the illicit practice of attempting to recruit a player while he is still bound by contract to another team", could hardly be more up to the minute in the light of last week's findings in the Ashley Cole affair.

"Bouncebackability", "the ability to recover after a setback, esp in sport", is regarded as having been coined by Crystal Palace manager Iain Dowie and has been championed by Sky Sports' morning football programme Soccer AM.

Also included is "squeaky-bum time", "the tense final stages of a league competition, esp from the point of view of the leaders". The phrase was coined by Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson "in an attempt to convey the tension experienced by those involved".

Other new words include "adultescent", an adult who is still actively interested in youth culture, "brand Nazi", a person who insists on buying one particular brand of clothing or other commodity, "exhibition killing", the murder of a hostage by terrorists, filmed for broadcasting on television or the internet, and "retrosexual", a heterosexual man who spends little time and money on his personal appearance.

Dictionary editor-in-chief Jeremy Butterfield said: "People have taken possession of language and are ever more inventive about the way they use it.

"The new words in this edition do not only reflect change in our culture, but a change in the way we use our language: they portray a vibrant, multicultural society finding new ways to express itself and describe the world around it."

I beleive the phrase used by Teal'c is "false dead gods".

All Tok'ra have names, but I prefer to keep mine a secret only known to the brave.
