What is your birthday word?

Which word entered the English language the year you were born? Use our birthday word generator and find out which word shares your birthday.

Please note that the dates given for these words refer to the current first known usage of the word. The OED team is continuously researching the histories of words (something you may be able to help with), and it’s therefore possible that we will find an earlier sense of the words during our research.
