Words are a proxy for the communities that use them, so who do they hate this year? Let's see.
African-Americans, as always.
Business types, yes.
Oo, children! That's new.
Also Australian and British English speakers catching strays.

The Eagle has landed.
The American Dialect Soceity #WotY2025 is 'slop'.
Two dictionaries, at least a couple of magazines, and now the ADS: it really is the Word of the Year.
americandialect.org/2025-word-of...
The 2025 Word of the Year is "slop," both as a noun for low-quality AI-generated content and as a combining form for anything of little value. Read the full press release. #WOTY2025 #ADS2026 #LSA2026

Anyone who has ever played #SIlkSong will understand why "lock in," to focus, should have included in this year's woty. #woty2025
it’s official: -slop (combining form and/or headword) is the @americandialect.org #WOTY2025 !!
Slop is the 2025 Word of the Year! #woty2025
Pretty new — Green's has an entry for CHOPPED but it's in the sense of "drunk", not "ugly".

in my humble opinion the most exciting moment of #WOTY2025 was when the voting module was glitching and we were briefly given the opportunity to crown “Option 5”
Slop is Digital Word of the Year!

at the #WOTY2025 vote and a literal middle-school child just came up to the mic to speak against 6-7 as Informal WoTY by saying “are we really just saying two numbers?”
Excited for the @americandialect.org #WotY2025 vote!
Looking to hear from correspondents on the ground.
