English on statistical deathbed

According to the statistics provided by the Global Language Monitor English is only 4,882 words short of a million.

I mentioned Paul JJ Payack's accounting project a month ago. So why bring it up again?

Because in an entire month not a single new word has entered the English Language! Not one. No explanation has been given for this stagnant spell.

    I used "Jeremiahwrightish" in a comment on Monica's page last week... shouldn't that be a new word?
