We have editors who spend a part of each day reading magazines and newspapers, looking for evidence of how words are being more commonly used. We're looking for words that show up in the contexts that the average adult might encounter.

All schools, all colleges, have two great functions: to confer, and to conceal, valuable knowledge. The theological knowledge which they conceal cannot justly be regarded as less valuable than that which they reveal. That is, when a man is buying a basket of strawberries it can profit him to know that the bottom half of it is rotten.1908, notebook
