For the first time in nine years, the dictionary aligned
with Scrabble, the world famous spelling game, is being revamped. And, game maker Hasbro is making a game of
it.
The public is asked to join in the first Scabble Word
Showdown by posting a possible new word to include in the next edition of the
Merriam-Webster’s Scrabble Players Dictionary to be published August 2014. Or, twitter #ScrabbleWordShowdown
To enter words like Ew or hashtag or selfie or twerk go the
Scrabble facebook page and post away.
Hasbro will take 16 recommendations and will ask facebookers to vote for
the best of the best to be included.
Entry deadline is March 28 with winners to be announced April
10.
