Every year has its buzzword - a word that has entered popular culture
and represents the newest fashion, saying or biggest event of that
year. A recent book in the UK by wordfox Susie Dent has identified
every year's buzzword from 1904 (hip) to 2004 (chav).

The buzzwords below are grouped by decade.
