Definition from 쿠키 뉴스:
옥스퍼드대 미국 출판부는 올해의 단어로 ‘친구삭제(unfriend)’를 선정했다. <br /><br />뉴 옥스퍼드 아메리칸 딕셔너리(NOAD)는 올해의 단어로 페이스북과 같은 소셜 네트워크(SOCIAL NETWORK)에서 사용하는 용어인 ‘unfriend’를 선정했다고 AP통신이 17일 보도했다. <br /><br />‘unfriend’는 우리 식으로 말하면 ‘일촌(一寸) 끊기’와 같은 의미로 페이스북 등에서 ‘친구목록 삭제’ 등에 쓰이며 일상 대화체에도 쓰이기 시작한 신조어다.
Example sentences:
