At least it’s not ‘Twerking’. Oxford Dictionaries has declared the word ‘Selfie’ the 2013 Word of the Year. A selfie is a new word for a self-portrait taken with a smartphone. The word first appeared in an Australian online forum in 2002. The word’s use has seen a dramatic rise in the past year. Previous winners include Sudoku, Unfriend, and Carbon Footprint.
