Informal words used as slang, such as 바카라�boop바카라� and 바카라�the ick바카라�, are among more than 3,200 new words and phrases added to the 바카라�Cambridge Dictionary바카라� in its latest update this week.

Boop, which is defined as 바카라�a gentle hit or touch on a person's or animal's nose or head, showing that you like them or as a joke바카라�, and 'the ick', which refers to 바카라�a sudden feeling that you dislike someone or something or are no longer attracted to someone because of something they do바카라�, are among the slangs to make it to the online edition for 2024 so far.

'Chef바카라�s kiss', or a movement in which you put your fingers and thumb together, kiss them, then pull your hand away from your lips as a way of showing that you think that something or someone is perfect or excellent, is another such informal phrase that has been recognised formally.

바카라�Language is always changing, and this means that the 바카라�Cambridge Dictionary바카라� team stays busy researching new words and meanings that enter the English language,바카라� the dictionary said in a statement on Thursday.

바카라�Many new additions come from the fields of science and technology, including 'scicomm' 바카라� the activity of explaining scientific work and information to people who are not scientists, or articles, talks, etc. that do this, and deep-sky 바카라� existing in or relating to the part of space outside the solar system,바카라� it said.

A few other quirky additions include IYKYK, which is the written abbreviation for 바카라�if you know you know바카라�. It is used mostly on social media and in text messages to imply a shared joke or shared knowledge with the reader that other people might not understand.

The noun 바카라�face journey바카라� has been added to refer to 바카라�a series of expressions that appear on someone's face showing different emotions that they are experiencing as a reaction to something바카라�.

바카라�Cambridge Dictionary바카라� said its team records how English is actually used by real people and uses the Cambridge English Corpus, a huge collection of written and spoken English, to gather evidence for how a new word is used by different people and in a variety of situations.

바카라�We also collect evidence of new words that have only appeared in English very recently. We feature three of these on our weekly About Words blog, where readers can vote on which words they think should be added to the dictionary,바카라� it explained, with reference the process behind adding on new terms.

Online gaming also inspired several new entries, such as 'backread' 바카라� to read through a series of messages or internet posts that you did not see when they were first created, often starting with the most recent, in order to learn what happened or was discussed earlier; 'speedrun' 바카라� to complete a computer game, or part of a computer game, as quickly as possible, especially by taking advantage of any glitches; and 'side quest' 바카라� a part of a computer game that has its own aim and story but is not part of the main game.

New additions from the world of music include 바카라�soca바카라� or a type of music that is a mixture of soul and calypso, originally from the Caribbean, and 바카라�jug band바카라� which refers to a small group of performers who play jazz, blues, or folk music on very simple musical instruments, especially using objects such as empty jugs as instruments.
