The "blackout", the "military", the "flotilla" and other words that have "gone extinct" by 2025

Language must constantly adapt if it wants to be effective; it must constantly change to explain what the new world brings and to project other worlds.

The UZEI terminology and lexicography center is a hard-working chronicler of these changes in our language, and one more year, honest with the appointment, it has gathered "25 words that we've been talking about in the media and on social media" in the coming year.

Last week, UZEI and Euskaltzaindia chose the term "tariff" in 2025, and the terminology and lexicography center released the list today, Monday.

We started talking about the "norovirus," as you can see from the list, and some people ended up talking about the "dirty bastards," words that French President Birgitte Macron's wife used against some feminist protesters.

In the meantime, however, the sounds of war have reigned in the lexicon, and in the public conversation the infamous invention of the "Gaza Riviera", the "rearmament", the "survival kit", the "military", the "pogrom", the "flotilla" and the "narcotalupa" in reference to the hunts of people from Hernani and Murcia to name the ships that the United States has sunk in the Caribbean Sea.

The list has also included a few words that are free of blood splashes, such as "ajoarriero", which Euskaltzaindia dictated at the beginning of the year; "Harausta" L'Aalegresse , the original Basque name of the neighborhood of Biarritz just named after it; "The blackout"; "UPV", which the Basque university will now use only the acronyms in Basque to name itself; "The Myth ", as a result of the successful announcement of the performance and performance of the Zetak group;" The creation of 13,000 years ago.

I hope these words, which sound like war, will be extinguished, never to be "extinguished," by the time the time comes for next year's list!
