London, Nov 17 : The Collins English Dictionary has a new word added to its list, and its origin is from the American animated sitcom The Simpsons.

The new word, Meh, which Lisa Simpson spelled out M-E-H for Homer, has been added, and it suggests a lack of enthusiasm, of being unimpressed, mediocre or boring.

The word was chosen as the public''s entry for the 30th anniversary edition of Collins English Dictionary, which will be published in 2009, as it is being used frequently in today''s English.

Meh was submitted by Erin Whyte from Nottingham who defined it as “an expression of utter boredom or an indication of how little you care for an idea”.
