"Marriage"
When:
Lookups spiked on June 25, 2011.
Why:
New York became the sixth state to legalize same-sex marriage.
Marriage has become a hot button definition, although its original sense –
"the state of being united to a person of the opposite sex" – has not
changed. However, because the word is used in phrases such as "same-sex
marriage" and "gay marriage" (by proponents and opponents alike), a second
definition was added to the dictionary to provide an accurate picture of the
word's current use. |
