The Advisory Board has determined that this edition will take effect on March 1, 2019.
As soon as OTCWL2016 went to press, the Dictionary Committee began reviewing the longer words that had been proposed for inclusion in that edition, but omitted due to time constraints.
This edition includes new words from three sources:
86 previously acceptable words were nominated for review; 12 of them were removed when no evidence was found supporting their original addition.
This edition includes 3,385 new words: 2 two-letter words, 1 three-letter word, 4 four-letter words, 23 five-letter words, 49 six-letter words, 65 seven-letter words, 88 eight-letter words, 181 nine-letter words, 1263 ten-letter words, 840 eleven-letter words, 415 twelve-letter words, 200 thirteen-letter words, 147 fourteen-letter words, and 107 fifteen-letter words.
