Pop-culture language commonly starts as specific to particular groups
with shared interests, and is frequently adopted into mainstream
vernacular. We warmly invite you to join us for this discussion around
the language of science-fiction, fantasy, and gaming:

• How and why language that develops in these communities is adopted
more widely
• How do the OED monitor these developments, and decide what should
(or should not) be recorded on the OED
• Interesting examples
• The influence of World Englishes varieties and other languages
