“电臀舞”被收入牛津英语字典
<p>牛津英语在线字典在最新公布的季度新词词库中收录了表示性感“电臀舞”的“<span word="twerking">twerking</span>”一词。字典编纂方表示，在过去12个月当中，美国流行歌手麦莉•赛勒斯凭借“电臀舞”顺利蹿升至排行榜首位，同时也让这个词被更多人熟知。他们指出，虽然很多读者第一次知道这个词是通过麦莉•赛勒斯在本届<span word="MTV">MTV</span>颁奖典礼上的性感热舞，但这个词其实已经存在了20年之久。关于这个词的起源有许多说法，但因为这个词最先是在口语中产生的，所以无法确定其真正的起源，最有可能是“<span word="twist">twist</span>”或“<span word="twitch">twitch</span>”与“<span word="work">work</span>”一词融合后的变形。此次更新的词库中还收录了“<span word="selfie">selfie</span>”（自拍）、“<span word="digital">digital</span> <span word="detox">detox</span>”（数字戒毒期），以及“<span word="Bitcoin">Bitcoin</span>”（比特币）。</p><p><span word="Twerking">Twerking</span>, <span word="the">the</span> <span word="rump">rump</span>-<span word="busting">busting</span> <span word="up">up</span>-<span word="and">and</span>-<span word="down">down</span> <span word="dance">dance</span> <span word="move">move</span> <span word="long">long</span> <span word="beloved">beloved</span> <span word="on">on</span> <span word="America">America</span>'<span word="s">s</span> <span word="hip">hip</span>-<span word="hop">hop</span> <span word="scene">scene</span>, <span word="has">has</span> <span word="officially">officially</span> <span word="gone">gone</span> <span word="mainstream">mainstream</span>. <span word="It">It</span>'<span word="s">s</span> <span word="got">got</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="English">English</span> <span word="dictionary">dictionary</span> <span word="entry">entry</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="prove">prove</span> <span word="it">it</span>.</p><p><span word="Britain">Britain</span>'<span word="s">s</span> <span word="Oxford">Oxford</span> <span word="Dictionaries">Dictionaries</span> <span word="said">said</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="rapid">rapid</span>-<span word="fire">fire</span> <span word="gyrations">gyrations</span> <span word="employed">employed</span> <span word="by">by</span> <span word="US">US</span> <span word="pop">pop</span> <span word="starlet">starlet</span> <span word="Miley">Miley</span> <span word="Cyrus">Cyrus</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="bounce">bounce</span> <span word="her">her</span> <span word="way">way</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="top">top</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="charts">charts</span> <span word="had">had</span> <span word="become">become</span> <span word="increasingly">increasingly</span> <span word="visible">visible</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="past">past</span> 12 <span word="months">months</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="would">would</span> <span word="be">be</span> <span word="added">added</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="its">its</span> <span word="publications">publications</span> <span word="under">under</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="entry">entry</span>: "<span word="Twerk">Twerk</span>, <span word="verb">verb</span>."</p>
