An example is Easter egg which is used for hidden information or content inside a DVD or computer program. Other words relate to men such as man bag, manboob and man crush. A detailed description of the condition now known as intermittent explosive disorder is given. The recent use of the term babymoon is provided along with the addition of f-bomb to the language. Both etymology and recent usage is documented.
