A survey of 5,100 children in the UK has revealed that"Queen" is their top word for 2022. The words"happy" and"chaos" took second and third place.Nearly half of 5,100 children aged six to 14 polled in the UK picked the word, according to the Coming in second and third in the organisation's annual survey were the words"happy" and"chaos."
The children surveyed were asked why they chose the words they did. Some children who picked"Queen" said it made them think of Queen Elizabeth II's death. The children also referenced the"new era" in British history that dawned with her"The queen died this year and it would be nice to have a word to remember her," said an unnamed child surveyed by the organisation.
The choice of the word"Queen" is significant because it shows that children are aware of the news and its impact on language, the report stated. Helen Freeman, the director of Oxford Children's Books, said in the report that the choice of top word was unsurprising, considering the Queen's"70 years of incredible service."
The word"Queen" is a marked shift from the top word of 2021:"anxiety." And it's been a depressing few years, word-wise: the top word for kids was"coronavirus" in 2020,"Brexit" in 2019,"plastic" in 2018, and"Trump" in 2017.
