Gendy nooch, cozzie livs, tiger toast, password child and murder noodle.

Some of the words have been submitted by the public and this month the dictionary is calling for more new word submissions.

According to the dictionary, the term gendy nooch is a shortening of gender-neutral, which means something not relating or specific to a particular gender.

Cozzie livs has quickly become slang for the rising cost of living, which is affecting most Australians this year.

Another new phrase is tiger toast, which refers to “toast with a topping of Vegemite and strips of cheese” according to the dictionary.

Password child is another new phrase meaning “a child favoured over their siblings, as shown by the use of their name in the parent’s passwords”.

The final top pick for April words of the month is murder noodle, which refers to “a snake, especially one that is venomous”.

Macquarie Dictionary has announced TEAL as Word of the Year 2022. (Supplied)
The 2022 Word of the Year was Teal, defined by the dictionary as “a political candidate who holds generally ideologically moderate views, but who supports strong action regarding environmental and climate action policies, and the prioritising of integrity in politics (so called as many of the candidates use the colour teal in their electoral material).

Last year’s people’s choice word was bachelor’s handbag, referring to the plastic bag containing a takeaway roast chicken often purchased from supermarkets.

You can submit a word to the dictionary or vote for any of these words to be included here.

The spiral was formed when excess fuel that had been released from a SpaceX rocket that launched from California about three hours earlier turned to ice, and then the water vapor reflected the sunlight in the upper atmosphere.
