  But for the most part, official sources like dictionaries only document current usage. New words don't originate from above, but from ordinary people spreading words that hit the right combination of useful and catchy 1.
  但大部分的情况下,像是字典之类的正式来源,只负责记录词汇现行的用法。新的词汇却往往不是这样产生的,它们是来自一般人广为流传的、那些既实用又让人容易记住的用词。

  4.ordinary 平凡的
  ordinary (adj.) 平凡的
  extraordinary (adj.) 超乎平凡的
  5.combination 结合
  combination (n.) 结合
  combine (v.) 结合
