【Watch Dark Desire Season 1 Online】

The Watch Dark Desire Season 1 OnlineOxford English Dictionary can never let slang just be slang. In the past, it's tried to bond with its fellow kids with words such as hot mess, YOLO, and manspreadingmuch to all of our eye-rolling.

The OED's latest update to the dictionary is the addition of the definition of woke, which TIMEdefines as a term "embraced by the Black Lives Matter movement."

If you didn't already understand the term from your time scrolling through Twitter, the OED defines it as:

woke, adjective: Originally: well-informed, up-to-date. Now chiefly: alert to racial or social discrimination and injustice; frequently in stay woke.

Katherine Martin, head of Oxford's U.S. dictionaries, explains that in the 1920s, the term simply meant to "stay awake." For example, there was an event held in Harlem with ran from 5 p.m. to 5 a.m. called the "Stay Woke Ball." However, in the 1960s, people began using "woke" to signal a more figurative sense of the word "awakened," referring to those who are aware or well-informed.
