OUP falls victim ...
... to stupidity:
Controversy over update to the OUP's Junior Dictionary
. (Hat tip, Maxine Clarke.)
Obviously, the new dictionary is not worth buying. After all, how many kids need to look up
voicemail
? They might, however, need to look up
marzipan
. Perhaps because it appeared in a book they were reading and it was word they were unfamiliar with?
