According to Google Zeitgeist (tracking for search queries), the most common “define” query was for the word “promiscuous.” (You can enter “define: word” and it’ll give you the dictionary entry). I’m pretty sure Nelly Furtado is to blame/thank for this. What if artists threw one solid vocab word into the chorus of their hit song…we’d all be a little bit smarter.
