A Victoria to get a word in the dictionary prompted response from Oxford itself.

Six-year-old Levi Budd, a St. Micheals University School second-grader, made a bid to add levidrome to the dictionary after learning all about palindromes and discovering no readily used word for a word that spells another valid word backward 91裸聊视频� such as stop and pots.

He decided to create a new word featuring his name, and try to get it in the dictionary.

They started with a video, local Black Press media outlets and a social media campaign.

Oxford became aware of the campaign through a tweet from famed Canadian actor

91裸聊视频淪ince then it and have covered the levidrome campaign,91裸聊视频� says Oxford editor Rebecca Juganaru in the video.

91裸聊视频淟evi there are many new words every year. Some very clever ones and some very useful ones. We don91裸聊视频檛 add all of these words to our dictionary, we91裸聊视频檇 never sleep if we did. Instead we only add the words that get used by a lot of people for a long time.91裸聊视频�

Many people know the word now, she noted, adding they91裸聊视频檙e impressed with how far the word has come in a five-week campaign. 91裸聊视频淟ots of people know your word and they know what it means which means levidrome is well on its way,91裸聊视频� Juganaru said.

Now they91裸聊视频檒l look for routine use in everyday language.

91裸聊视频淭hen all we do is wait and hope that people keep using your word,91裸聊视频� Juganaru said. 91裸聊视频淲e have a list of all the words we want to keep an eye on and levidrome is on that list in a hear or so if lots of people are still using your word it might well get into our dictionary.91裸聊视频�

The word is already in the user-submitted online.
