'Meh' enters English dictionary

Monday, November 17, 2008

The word, which beat hundreds of other suggestions from members of the public, will feature in the 30th anniversary edition of the dictionary, which is to be published next year.

Isn't it because sg use more?

I guess from now on, it's common to use 'meh'?
