In this Issue Welcome to a real milestone - the 50th edition of MED Magazine, the free webzine of the Macmillan Dictionaries resource site! To celebrate our half-century, we’re bringing you not only our regular mix of columns and articles, but also a special feature on how rhyme helps keep the English language fresh. If you want expert information on the correct use of English in the 21st Century, don’t miss our Language Awareness series, which this month turns to the issue of Discourse. In the New Word of the Month series, we take a look at the techno-lexicon that is developing around online social networking sites. This month’s special Feature considers the role rhyme plays in the creation of new words and phrases. If you’re looking for something new to read, maybe the subject of this month’s Book Review – which takes a dip into the murky world of euphemisms – is for you! If you would like to browse the content of earlier issues of MED Magazine, visit the Back issues and Index pages. To read a selection of emails readers have sent us from around the world, visit the Letters to the editor page. |
