Twenty-two make it in
Twenty-two Manx words, compounds, and phrases have been added to the next Oxford English Dictionary update.
They include the likes of 'yessir', 'skeet', 'gobbag', 'loaghtan', and 'traa dy liooar'.
Kelvin Corlett is a Manxman and senior assistant editor at the OED.
He says it's great how you can see the Island's linguistic heritage in the entries:
More coastal overtopping expected as strong winds continue
New weather warning covers next two high tides
Full lighting capability restored at Isle of Man Airport
Issue affecting main runway now fixed
Snaefell Mountain Railway out of action after storm damage
But the MER will be operating as normal tomorrow
Council confident for Manor Pub's future
Question marks over beloved establishment's future
