It's hard to credit this, but people have started claiming to be thinkfluencers.
Well, we'll be the judge of that.
Word Not To Use Today: thinkfluencer. The good thing about this word is that it does sound a bit like influenza...and both are probably equally fun to catch.
I'm not sure who coined this word, but Rurik Bradbury was using it to describe his satirical internet expert character Professor Jeff Jarvis in 2012.
Sadly, the word has now stopped being a joke and people have actually started to take it seriously.
The Old English form of thank was thencan. The Latin word influere means to flow into.
