Will `Baby Momma' Make It Into The Dictionary
Quote: PHOENIX (Wireless Flash) -- Here's a sign of the times as far as slang goes: The folks at the \"Oxford English Dictionary (OED)\" are considering adding the phrase \"baby momma\" to the wordy publication.
The streetwise saying, a counterpart to the ever-popular \"baby daddy,\" refers to the unwed mother of a child and has appeared recently in publications like \"Jet\" and \"The New York Times.\"
Other new terms being considered for addition to the dictionary include...
-- \"Fembot,\" which can be either a robot which looks like an attractive woman or an emotionless woman.
-- And the verb \"wand\" which refers to the act of waving a hand held metal detector over a person's body, as in \"I got wanded at the airport.\"
