Some of you must have complained why there are so many English words that you have to 　22 every day. However, do you know how many words the English language has exactly? Maybe ten thousand, one hundred thousand, or 　23 one million!

Every 98 minutes, there is a new English word being 　24 Last time when words were being 25　 to the language at this rate was during the 　26 of William Shakespeare. The 　27 popularity of English has 　28 the most fertile period of word creation. About 1.53 billion people speak English as a 　29 , a second or a business language. The Global Language Monitor, 　 30 in the state of Texas in the US, has been recording English word creation since 2003. Now, there are almost one million English words.

Words that are predicted to be the one millionth 　 31　 “defollow”, “defriend”, “noob”, and “greenwashing”. “Defollow” and “defriend” are Internet words, 　 32 what users do with a person they do not wish to 　 33 in touch with on the Internet. “Noob” is an offending name for someone new 　34 a particular task or community. The word “greenwashing” 　35 what companies do to appear 　36 friendly. And “chiconomics” means a difficult time in fashion. Of course, there is a 　37 that the one millionth word will be a sixth choice. The Global Language Monitor once 　38 that the millionth English word would be “imminent” in 2006, but the organization has 39 that expected date 　40 once. Other experts have 　41 doubts about its methods because they don’t think that there is an agreement about how to classify a word.
