GIF is, in fact, an abbreviation of three separate words: Graphics Interchange Format. It was first released by CompuServe in 1987 but has experienced a dramatic cultural resurgence in recent years, most commonly used to make humorous commentary on topics ranging from sports to the 2012 presidential election.
????GIF??????????????????????????,?????????????????????????.
"GIF" has been chosen as word of the year by the Oxford American Dictionary. It now formally holds an honored place in the cultural lexicon.
"GIF?????????????????y?ú€?????§Ø???????????,???????????§à?????????????,????????????¦Ë?????????." ????????????????????????????????"GIF??2012????????????,??????????????,??????????????."
"The GIF has evolved from a medium for pop-cultural memes into a tool with serious applications including research and journalism, and its lexical identity is transforming to keep pace." said Katherine Martin, head of the US dictionaries program at Oxford. "GIF celebrated a lexical milestone in 2012, gaining traction as a verb, not just a noun."
??????????¦Ë????????§Õ????YOLO,?????"????????????".???????????????"?????»e",????????11?¦Ì???????????????????????????????????.
The runner-up for the word of the year was also an abbreviation, "YOLO," which stands for "You only live once." "Superstorm" was another runner-up for word of the year, after the major storm that affected the Eastern US during the first week of November.

Needless to say, having all three words shows how neologisms are having a growing influence in the cultural landscape. Still, some older words have found new linguistic relevance. "Pleb," taken from the Roman word "plebs," has found a modern context in its derogatory usage to describe "a member of the ordinary people or working classes."
???????,??????????,???????????????????????????????????.
Interestingly, the word-of the-year distinction does not guarantee that the chosen words will actually be included in future editions of the Oxford English Dictionary.
