Neologisms Corner

An occasional series of entries devoted to the wonderful world of Neologism spotting in English. An awful lot of new words, meanings and phrases enter the language each year - on average, one every two hours - and an awful lot of them are total rubbish. Take this prize example, heard on the BBC news earlier on today. A police officer was describing the scene of a crash between a car, a bus and a tram in Croydon, which had left one person dead and several others seriously injured. He was explaining that they were waiting for the place to be forensically examined: '.....we are treating the scene as a crime scene, and are waiting for it to be forensicated..'
Totally bloody ugly word.
