Merriam-Webster has published its annual list of top 10 words. In these tough economic times, it's no surprise that austerity is the number 1 word of 2010. When the going gets austere, the austere get pragmatic (word number 2) and markedly less ebullient (number 8).

Merriam-Webster has other neat content: more top 10 lists, words games, etc. Visit our library's Guide to Dictionary and Encyclopedia Resources for yet more helpful links.
