TikTok talk goes mainstream as neologisms like ‘tradwife’ and ‘broligarchy’ make their way into the Cambridge Dictionary.

Skibidi – A gibberish term from an animated YouTube series, used to mean “cool,” “bad,” or simply as a joke. Tradwife – Short for “traditional wife,” describing a married woman who embraces domestic roles and shares them on social media.

The word “lewk” was added to Cambridge this year, three years after it was added to Merriam-Webster and more than a decade after it was popularized by fashion influencers and drag queens. Another addition was “inspo,” a term that has referred to inspirational online images since the early days of Instagram.
