'Skibidi', 'delulu', 'tradwife' and 'broligarchy' are among thousands of new English words, phrases and meanings that have been added to the Cambridge Dictionary, the publisher said in a statement.

The words have grown in use across social and mainstream media and beyond, linked to celebrities and influencers such as Kim Kardashian (skibidi), Hannah Neeleman of @ballerinafarm (tradwife) and Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese (delulu with no solulu).

The publisher said slang term skibidi, which has different meanings such as cool or bad, or can be used with no real meaning as a joke, was coined by the creator of a viral animated video series ‘Skibidi Toilet’ on YouTube.

The 6,212 new words, phrases and meanings, alongside a regular programme of revisions and an expanding range of bilingual dictionaries, the publisher claims, make the Cambridge Dictionary one of the fastest-growing dictionaries in the world.

“It’s not every day you get to see words like skibidi and delulu make their way into the Cambridge Dictionary. We only add words where we think they'll have staying power. Internet culture is changing the English language and the effect is fascinating to observe and capture in the Dictionary,” said Colin McIntosh, Lexical Programme Manager, Cambridge Dictionary
