主持人对话①"Or calling it 'hiney' or 'hinney.'"
HINTS
epic fail
hiney or hee-nee
death panel
http://t1.g.hjfile.cn/listen/201204/201204070639496762220.mp3This is a kind of online interjection that got very popular and then became used frequently as a noun, as in 'epic fail.' So that was a word that I had nominated. It actually won in the category of Most Useful.
"We had a couple of other sort of health-related terms. One was 'H1N1.' By the end of the year, people were actually using that H1N1 to refer to the virus rather than simply saying 'the swine flu virus.'"
"That's true. That had been suggested -- hiney or hee-nee -- as a way to pronounce that. We also had 'public option,' obviously a much discussed component of the health care reform bills before Congress this year. And we also had the suffix '-er' as in 'birther' or 'deather.' So people who questioned whether Obama was born in the United States were disparaged as 'birthers.'
"People who believed in the so-called death panels -- 'death panel,' by the way, won in the Most Outrageous category. That was a term that Sarah Palin had introduced when talking about the health care legislation, that supposedly these death panels would be set up. So people who believed in that were disparaged with the term 'deather.'"
