Every year, the Merriam-Webster dictionary highlights a list of word that a lot of people searched for in the past year. This was 2022's, for example:

There are usually about 10 words per year.

I am begging you, please do not add really stupid stuff that has zero chance of being a word of the year, because there are a limited number of options per market. If you put a slur or something offensive or incredibly dumb, I will erase the option and shame you.

Resolution rules:

This is an unlinked free response market. Anyone can submit an answer, and if that answer is one the 2025 words of the year it will resolve Yes. If the word is very close, such as "Indict" to "Indictment", it will also resolve Yes. Otherwise, it will resolve No.
