Language is happening before our very eyes…

…and most of it is crap, like everything. But still worth observing.

Dorbanot, a new site/blog, is trying to document contemporary Hebrew slang take the role of a Hebrew UrbanDictionary, though hopefully with less munging (no link - trust me. Don’t search for it if you value your lunch)

Many of the terms outlined within are boring, or not-as-witty-as-people-think-they-are, but that’s to be expected. This is a work in progress, much like all culture is. Some entries are tasteless, some boring, some are already in use by me today, and some make you feel like taking them and spreading the word - which is mainly the point on the site, I suppose.
