Hello
,
welcome
to
Six
Minute
Vocabulary
.
I'm
Rob
.
And
I'm
Catherine
.
And
today
we're
talking
about
new
words
.
Yes
,
new
words
in
English
.
We'll
look
at
where
they
come
from
,
why
we
need
them
and
who
uses
them
.
We'll
have
a
quiz
and
we'll
also
bring
you
a
top
tip
for
learning
vocabulary
.
But
first
,
here's
Eiris
talking
about
a
photograph
she
took
.
And
here's
a
question
.
Is
Iris
happy
with
her
photo
?
OK
.
So
here's
a
selfie
from
a
flash
mob
,
I
went
to
everyone
dancing
and
stuff
,
and
that's
my
idiot
boyfriend
at
the
back
,
he
decided
to
photobomb
me
.
It's
quite
funny
,
though
.
I
put
it
on
my
social
networks
,
but
the
trolls
said
,
we
look
stupid
.
I
don't
care
,
though
.
I
like
it
.
So
that's
Iris
,
and
she
said
she
liked
the
photo
good
.
Now
,
there
were
a
few
words
there
that
are
quite
new
in
English
.
Let's
have
a
look
at
some
of
them
.
Listen
again
to
Iris
to
questions
this
time
.
One
,
what
type
of
photo
did
she
take
and
to
where
was
she
?
So
he's
a
selfie
from
a
flash
mob
.
I
went
to
.
So
Iris
took
a
selfie
and
she
was
at
a
flashmob
,
let's
take
those
words
one
at
a
time
.
Yes
,
first
of
all
,
a
very
popular
word
.
Now
,
selfie
,
that's
a
photograph
you
take
of
yourself
by
holding
your
camera
or
phone
out
in
front
of
you
at
arm's
length
.
Selfie
.
Take
many
selfies
,
Rob
.
Absolutely
not
.
No
,
not
at
all
.
Don't
look
at
myself
.
Thank
you
.
But
where
does
the
word
selfie
come
from
?
Well
,
the
word
self-portrait
has
been
around
for
a
long
time
.
It
means
a
picture
you
draw
or
paint
of
yourself
.
So
selfie
probably
comes
from
that
.
Yes
.
And
that's
one
way
words
come
into
English
,
get
an
old
word
,
change
it
to
fit
a
new
situation
.
And
you've
got
a
new
word
like
selfie
.
And
that's
one
reason
why
we
need
new
words
to
talk
about
new
situations
like
all
these
self
portraits
that
everyone's
taking
.
Yeah
,
good
.
Now
,
another
way
to
make
a
new
word
for
a
new
situation
is
to
get
to
old
words
and
put
them
together
.
Iris
,
was
that
a
flash
mob
?
Now
a
flash
mob
is
a
crowd
of
people
who
gather
together
quickly
and
suddenly
.
It's
often
organized
through
social
media
.
Now
the
word
flash
can
mean
something
that
happens
very
quickly
.
And
a
mob
is
a
crowd
of
people
.
So
when
you
put
them
together
,
you've
got
the
perfect
new
word
for
the
situation
.
Ever
been
on
a
flash
mob
,
Rob
?
I'm
afraid
not
.
Nobody's
invited
me
and
really
to
the
next
one
.
I
go
on
.
Thank
you
.
Anyway
,
you've
probably
noticed
that
these
words
are
mostly
made
by
people
on
social
media
.
It's
not
the
only
place
that
new
words
come
from
,
but
a
lot
of
new
words
are
coming
from
social
media
at
the
moment
.
Next
example
,
Iris's
boyfriend
jumped
into
her
selfie
at
the
last
minute
is
actually
in
the
photo
,
even
though
she
wasn't
expecting
him
to
be
.
And
here's
a
word
for
it
.
And
that's
my
idiot
boyfriend
at
the
back
,
he
decided
to
photobomb
me
.
So
photobomb
,
that's
a
new
word
made
from
two
old
words
,
photo
,
obviously
,
and
bomb
,
the
thing
that
suddenly
explodes
and
we've
got
similar
new
words
like
weather
bomb
.
That's
a
sudden
period
of
extreme
weather
.
And
then
the
thought
bomb
where
people
get
together
and
basically
think
,
yes
,
that's
a
new
word
for
what
we
used
to
call
brainstorm
.
It
is
.
Yeah
,
very
similar
.
Right
.
OK
,
well
,
now
,
Eiris
used
another
new
word
to
describe
people
who
post
horrible
comments
on
social
media
.
Listen
carefully
to
this
.
I
put
it
on
my
social
networks
,
but
the
trolls
said
,
we
look
stupid
.
A
person
who
posts
negative
comments
on
social
media
is
called
a
troll
and
troll
is
actually
an
old
words
for
an
imaginary
creature
,
a
kind
of
monster
.
You
find
lots
of
trolls
in
old
Scandinavian
stories
and
the
word's
been
around
in
English
for
a
long
time
.
So
an
old
word
with
a
new
meaning
.
But
there's
a
link
there
to
the
original
meaning
,
isn't
there
?
Yes
,
that's
right
.
Because
both
kinds
of
troll
are
quite
ugly
in
their
own
way
,
either
in
their
looks
or
behavior
.
Six
minutes
from
BBC
Learning
English
.
And
we're
talking
about
new
words
,
so
,
Catherine
,
have
you
ever
been
trolled
and
thankfully
I
haven't
,
Rob
,
I
choose
my
friends
very
carefully
on
social
media
.
Right
.
It's
quiz
time
.
Question
one
,
what's
the
word
for
a
group
of
people
who
gather
together
suddenly
and
it's
normally
organized
on
social
media
?
Any
ideas?
the
word
is
flashmob
question
to
what
word
means
jump
into
someone
else's
photograph
.
That
photobomb
.
Finally
,
what's
the
word
for
people
who
write
nasty
negative
comments
online
?
They
are
trolls
.
OK
,
well
done
.
If
you
got
those
right
at
home
.
Well
done
indeed
.
And
now
here's
a
vocabulary
tip
to
keep
your
English
right
up
to
date
.

media

media
