    Oxford American Dictionary's word of the year for 2010 is "Refudiate" (refute + repudiate). this word is coined by sarah palin, when she used it in a Tweet about the proposed Islamic Cultural Center near the World Trade Center site in New York City.

    In an announcement on the Oxford University Press blog, editors said the entry would read: "Refudiate: verb used loosely to mean 'reject'. The dictionary's editors said the terms was the "unquestionable buzzword of 2010". Other words on the shortlist included "webisode" – an original episode from a TV series, made for online viewing-ians.

    Austerity, the 14th century noun defined as "the quality or state of being austere" and "enforced or extreme economy," set off enough searches that Merriam-Webster named it as its Word of the Year for 2010. "austerity" saw more than 250,000 searches on the dictionary's free online tool and came with more coverage of the debt crisis

    “App” voted 2010 word of the year by the American Dialect Society
