===Obama an English language word===
On 20 February 2008, the [[Global Language Monitor]] announced that the latest word to enter the English language is [[obama]] in its many variations. The word is derived from the name, [[Barack Obama]], the Senator from Illinois, and Democratic candidate for the US Presidency for the 2008 election.
GLM described Obama- as a ‘root’ for an ever-expanding number of words, including: obamamentum, obamacize, obamarama, obamaNation, obamanomics, obamican, obamafy, obamamania[15], and obamacam.
