By Jonathan O'Callaghan In recent years we’ve seen popular words on social networks make their way into the dictionary - from selfie to bitcoin. But now a new initiative will see Twitter users decide for themselves what modern words they want to see included. Collins English Dictionary has scoured the microblogging site to find emerging words, and is asking users to vote on which should be added to the next edition of the dictionary. Twitter users are being asked to vote on new words to enter the October 2014 edition of the Collins English Dictionary. Entries must be tweeted with a hashtag by 28 May and include words such as 'adorkable', which means a person who is 'dorky in an adorable way.' Stock image pictured
