The Oxford English Dictionary—the final word on words—has opened its doors to a bevy of new words and terms; but some of the words, the dictionary notes, aren’t as new as you’d think.

Hot mess, a new term for the OED, was first used in the 1800s and referred to (as you might expect) a warm meal. Throughout the 1900s, it already was being used as a term to refer to an uncomfortable situation. Twerk, the OED says, has its origins from the 1820 word twirk, which was a twisting, jerking movement.

Other words and phrases added recently include fo’ shizzle, koozie and sext. (Time)
