It's not linguistically interesting, but pedophile is definitely the word of the year 2025.
Kendrick performed at the Super Bowl in February and didn't sing, but the crowd sang "certified loverboy? certified pedophile."
"Release the Epstein files" all year. Calling them the "pedo files." Records from "pedophile island."
It's on protest signs since the shutdown ended/release of emails calling Trump a pedophile.
Republican pundits trying to "ease" the child sex abuse accudations by saying it's ephebophilia.
It's the word of the year, newswise.

It’s great to see more people exploring natural ways to improve emotional well-being. As a mushroom healer, I’ve seen how nature-based practices can help people manage stress, gain clarity, and feel more balanced over time. The results can be surprisingly powerful, even though the approach is gentle.

jonvier commented on the user jonvier
I’m proposing benone as a new English verb to fill a gap in everyday language. We often need a quick, casual way to say something has suddenly disappeared, stopped existing, or gone missing without explanation. “Benone” is short, easy to say, and works well in both literal and slang contexts.
benone (verb)
to disappear suddenly; to vanish; to stop existing or get lost beyond recovery.
Example:
“My keys benoned somewhere between the kitchen and the car.”
“The file benoned after the update.”
You can add also as slang:
benone (slang) — to ghost someone; to drop out of contact completely.
“He just benoned after the first date.”

alexandra.amini_ commented on the word sagescent
Hello there,
I would like to add a new word to the Wordnik community.
sagescent: (seɪdʒ.sənt): adj, n. Becoming wise or in the process of becoming wise. The word points to a gradual growth of insight that often deepens with age.
Etymology: From Latin sapient meaning wise and the suffix escent meaning becoming, from Latin escentem, which refers to a gradual process of change or development.
Examples:
Her reflections during a difficult year left her feeling undeniably sagescent.
Sagescent came slowly for him, shaped by long conversations and steady self-reflection.
