Topic Reading-Vol.1500-5/20/2016

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Singapore terms join Oxford English Dictionary
Oxford English Dictionary, or OED, is one of the most authentic reference of English words. In order to be recognized as authentic English, a word must be used in several cases and has been used for some time.
Here are some examples of newly added words to the dictionary from Hong Kong and Singapore.
While an ang moh was eating chilli crab in a hawker center in Hong Kong, he was hit by a killer litter.
He ate delicious char siu in a dai pai dong in the wet market in Singapore.
Did you make it out?
Enjoy reading and learning the newest words in the authentic dictionary.
Last but not the least, thank you for reading this 1,500th Topic Reading. 
It took four years and 40 days to get here.
