牛津词典公布2022年度词汇:Goblin Mode
今天,牛津词典公布2022年度词汇:Goblin Mode.
📍goblin /ˈɡɒb.lɪn/ 表示“(故事中通常很丑陋且祸害人的)小妖精,小妖怪”,英文解释为“(in stories) a small, ugly creature that is harmful to humans”。
📍Goblin Mode,鬼怪模式/哥布林模式/摆烂模式,形容的是一种肆无忌惮地自我放纵、懒惰、邋遢或贪婪状态,且通常是以不遵守社会规范或期望的方式呈现。(a type of behaviour which is unapologetically self-indulgent, lazy, slovenly, or greedy, typically in a way that rejects social norms or expectations.)
📍维基百科的定义:Goblin mode is a neologism for rejecting societal expectations and living in an unkempt, hedonistic manner without regard to self-image. Goblin mode是一个新词,指的是拒绝社会期望,以不修边幅、享乐主义的方式生活,而不考虑自我形象。
据了解,该词走红是因为,2022年2月份,推特上有人恶搞了一张标题为「朱莉娅·福克斯坦言她和侃爷的‘艰难关系’:他不喜欢我进入“哥布林模式”」的新闻截图,吃瓜群众不知道goblin mode是什么奇怪的东西。

Oxford Word of the Year 2022
From: Oxford Dictionary
The public has spoken! After opening the choice of Word of the Year up to English speakers for the first time in its history, over the last two weeks more than 300,000 people cast their vote.
The Oxford Word of the Year is a word or expression reflecting the ethos, mood, or preoccupations of the past twelve months, one that has potential as a term of lasting cultural significance. Supported by evidence of real language usage, Oxford’s editors track candidates as they emerge throughout the year, analyzing frequency statistics and other language data in the Oxford English Corpus. Previous words have included vax (2021), climate emergency (2019), and selfie (2013).
And the winner is... Goblin mode
‘Goblin mode’ – a slang term, often used in the expressions ‘in goblin mode’ or ‘to go goblin mode’ – is ‘a type of behaviour which is unapologetically self-indulgent, lazy, slovenly, or greedy, typically in a way that rejects social norms or expectations.’
Although first seen on Twitter in 2009, goblin mode went viral on social media in February 2022, quickly making its way into newspapers and magazines after being tweeted in a mocked-up headline. The term then rose in popularity over the months following as Covid lockdown restrictions eased in many countries and people ventured out of their homes more regularly. Seemingly, it captured the prevailing mood of individuals who rejected the idea of returning to ‘normal life’, or rebelled against the increasingly unattainable aesthetic standards and unsustainable lifestyles exhibited on social media.
The Oxford Corpus lists many vivid examples of goblin mode, including “Goblin mode is like when you wake up at 2am and shuffle into the kitchen wearing nothing but a long t-shirt to make a weird snack, like melted cheese on saltines”, as quoted in The Guardian newspaper. More recently, an opinion piece in The Times stated that “too many of us… have gone ‘goblin mode’ in response to a difficult year.”
Speaking at a special event to announce this year’s approach to selecting the Oxford Word of the Year, Ben Zimmer, American linguist and lexicographer, said: “Goblin Mode really does speak to the times and the zeitgeist, and it is certainly a 2022 expression. People are looking at social norms in new ways. It gives people the license to ditch social norms and embrace new ones.”
metaverse (second place)
The term ‘metaverse’ describes ‘a (hypothetical) virtual reality environment in which users interact with one another’s avatars and their surroundings in an immersive way, sometimes posited as a potential extension of or replacement for the internet, World Wide Web, social media, etc.’ The first recorded use of metaverse in the Oxford English Dictionary dates from 1992, in the science fiction novel Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson.
Until late 2021, there was relatively little sustained usage of ‘metaverse’ outside of specialist contexts. By October 2022, it had increased almost fourfold from the previous year in the Oxford Corpus. While some of this increase can be attributed to the name change of social media conglomerate Facebook in October 2021, the concept of the ‘metaverse’, how we use it, and what it means for the future, has also been widely discussed. Words commonly occurring near ‘metaverse’ include Web3, virtual, NFT, crypto, build (as in ‘build the metaverse’), and vision (as ‘a vision of/for the metaverse’).
As we grapple with relatively new concepts like hybrid working in the virtual reality space, metaverse is particularly pertinent to debates about the ethics and feasibility of an entirely online future.
#IStandWith (third place)
The phrase ‘to stand with’ someone, in the context of supporting them or taking their side, dates back to the 14th century. However, the hashtag #IStandWith emerged in the first decade of the 21st century; evidence has been found dating back to 2009.
Used on social media to express solidarity with a specific cause, group, or person, ‘#IStandWith’ has been identified as a way for people to communicate their opinions and align their stances on specific events.
Data from social media and the Oxford Corpus show that ‘#IStandWith’ and variants became significantly more frequent and prominent in March 2022, following the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
In what has been a turbulent year for many, ‘#IStandWith’ has been used to show support for a range of causes, with evidence showing a spike in internet searches in 2022 compared to 2021.

尽管哥布林模式于2009年首次出现在推特上,但它于2022年2月在社交媒体上走红,当时一张含有该表达的恶搞新闻标题截图被发在推特上,后来迅速出现在报纸和杂志上。随着新冠疫情隔离限制在许多国家放松,人们更频繁地走出家门,这个词在接下来的几个月里越来越受欢迎。看来,该表达捕捉到了在那些拒绝回归“正常生活”的人中盛行的情绪,或者是对社交媒体上展示的越来越难以达到的审美标准和不可持续的生活方式的反抗。

Until late 2021, there was relatively little sustained usage of 'metaverse' outside of specialist contexts. By October 2022, it had increased almost fourfold from the previous year in the Oxford Corpus. While some of this increase can be attributed to the name change of social media conglomerate Facebook in October 2021, the concept of the 'metaverse', how we use it, and what it means for the future, has also been widely discussed. Words commonly occurring near 'metaverse' include Web3, virtual, NFT, crypto, build (as in 'build the metaverse'), and vision (as 'a vision of/for the metaverse').
