Britons are pulling on budgie smugglers to go wild swimming, discussing starter marriages at stupid o’clock and sipping craft beer while planning their next elimination diet.

“新詞目中的大量縮略語都與社會媒體、電子郵件、手機簡訊以及其他電子通訊方式密切相關(guān)，此次更新還首次將這些詞置于出現(xiàn)時的歷史情境中。
“Among other initialisms are a range of different ways to indicate that you’re about to be AFK (away from the keyboard, first recorded in 1990) but hope to return shortly, including BRB ‘be right back’, TTYL ‘talk to you later’, ltr or l8r ‘later’ (all from 1988), SYS (‘see you soon’, 1993), and the more open-ended GTG (‘got to go’, 1994).
“有許多縮略語能夠預(yù)示你即將‘AFK’（away from the keyboard的縮寫，意為‘離開鍵盤’，1990年添加的詞條），但希望很快能回來，比如‘BRB’（‘be right back’的縮寫，意為‘很快回來’）， ‘TTYL’（‘talk to you later’的縮寫，意為‘回聊’），‘Itr’或 ‘l8r’‘later’（意為‘一會見’）（都是1988年收錄的），‘SYS’（‘see you soon’的縮寫，意為‘待會見’，1993年收錄）還有相對隨意的‘GTG’（‘got to go’的縮寫，意為‘得走了’，收錄于1994年）。”

“同樣，有很多方式可以表示你只是在開玩笑，比如‘JK’（Just kidding的縮寫，意為‘只是說笑’），也有很多方式表達某人（故意地或不經(jīng)意地）讓你ROFL（‘rolling on the floor’的縮寫，意為‘笑得滿地打滾’，出現(xiàn)于1989年），比如LMAO（‘laughing my ass off’的縮寫，意為‘笑得不行了’，出現(xiàn)于1990年）”，以及強化（并且粗俗的）版本LMFAO（出現(xiàn)于1993年）。”
