Sakshi Education
Writers and poets invent words. Even scientists add new words. A number of words have been added because of computer programming and hardware. For example, 'formatted' 'power bank' 'mouse' 'router' 'bytes' 'footage'. 'helicopter/chopper', 'satellite', 'rocket' also were added by science. Today, native English speakers add words to every day speech. Indian words like 'samosa' 'pakora' 'bandobust' 'guru' are now found in Cambridge/ Oxford dictionaries. Poets too have that privilege. In Telugu too, we have new expressions like మొలక నవ్వు (కరుణశ్రీ), భస్మసింహాసనం, జీవ లవము (జాషువా)
