NEW words and meanings added to OALD!
Our March 2021 release sees over 90 additions to OALD online, to make sure our dictionary A-Z is bang up to date. This time, many new words and meanings are related to the topic of health and wellbeing, including:
- Words to do with looking after yourself, such as self-care, HIIT and kettlebell
- Medical terms, such as informed consent, clinical trial and epinephrine
- More pandemic-related vocabulary, such as circuit breaker, long Covid and support bubble
