Lockdown Named 2020’s Word of the Year by Collins Dictionary

    Lockdown, the noun that has come to define so many lives across the world in 2020, has been named word of the year by
Collins Dictionary. Lockdown is defined by Collins as “the imposition of stringent restrictions on travel, social interaction, and
access to public spaces”. The 4.5-billion-word Collins Corpus, which contains written material from websites, books and
newspapers, as well as spoken material from radio, television and conversations, registered a 6,000% increase in ______(1)
usage. In 2019, there were 4,000 recorded instances of lockdown being used. In 2020, this had risen to more than a quarter
of a million.
        “Language is a reflection of the world around us and 2020 has been dominated by the global pandemic,” says Collins
language content consultant Helen Newstead. “We have chosen lockdown as _______(2) word of the year because it
encapsulates the shared experience of billions of people who have had to restrict _______(3) daily lives in order to contain the
virus. Lockdown has affected the way we work, study, shop, and socialise. It is not a word of the year to celebrate, but it is,
perhaps, one that sums up the year for most of the world.”
    Other pandemic-related words such as coronavirus, social distancing and key worker were on the dictionary’s list of the
top 10 words. However, the coronavirus crisis didn’t completely dominate this year’s vocabulary: words like “Megxit,” a term
to describe Prince Harry and Meghan Markle stepping back as senior members of the royal family, also made the shortlist
along with “TikToker” (a person who regularly shares or appears in videos on TikTok), and “BLM.” The abbreviation BLM, for
Black Lives Matter is defined by Collins as “a movement that campaigns against racially motivated violence and oppression”,
it registered a 581% increase in usage.

Shallow
Lady Gaga
Tell me something, girl
Are you happy in this modern world?
Or do you need more?
Is there something else you’re searching for?
I’m falling
In all the good times
I find myself longing for change
And in the bad times I fear myself
Tell me something, boy
Aren’t you tired trying to fill that void?
Or do you need more?
Ain’t it hard keeping it so hardcore?
I’m falling
In all the good times
I find myself longing for change
And in the bad times I fear myself
I’m off the deep end, watch as I dive in
I’ll never meet the ground
Crash through the surface
Where they can’t hurt us
We’re far from the shallow now

What a Wonderful World
Louis Armstrong
I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed days, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands, saying: How do you do?
They’re really saying: I love you!
I hear babies crying, I watch them grow
They’ll learn much more, than I’ll never know
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
Yes, I think to myself, what a wonderful world

From Nail bars to car washes: how big

is the UK’s slavery problem?
by Annie Kelly
Does slavery exist in the UK?
      More than 250 years since the end of the transatlantic slave trade, there are close to 41 million people still trapped in
some form of slavery across the world today. Yet nobody really knows the scale and how many victims or perpetrators of
this crime there are in Britain.
      The data that has been released is inconsistent. The government believes there are about 13,000 victims of slavery in the
UK, while earlier this year the Global Slavery Index released a much higher estimate of 136,000.
      Statistics on slavery from the National Crime Agency note the number of people passed on to the government’s national
referral mechanism (NRM), the process by which victims of slavery are identified and granted statutory support. While this
data gives a good snapshot of what kinds of slavery are most prevalent and who is falling victim to exploiters, it doesn’t paint
the whole picture. For every victim identified by the police, there will be many others who are not found and remain under
the control of traffickers, pimps and gangmasters.
      There are also many potential victims who don’t agree to go through the mechanism because they don’t trust the
authorities, or are too scared to report their traffickers. Between 1 November 2015 and 30 June 2018, the government
received notifications of 3,306 potential victims of modern slavery in England and Wales who were not referred to the NRM.
      […]
      The police recorded 3,773 modern slavery offences between June 2017 and June 2018.
      […]
