Dictionary Word Search 16

New Entries in Year 2002

This word search puzzle is themed. It hides 18 words or phrases which only first appeared in dictionaries in 2002. Our personal favorite is BIKINI LINE. But while these search terms are listed, there are 2 additional unlisted search terms for you to find. The solution is provided.

Here are three new entries with definitions and sample sentences. There are seventeen others in the puzzle. Are you familiar with them all?

AIR MILE a loyalty point earned through airline frequent flyer and rewards programs. The air miles he collected from business trips earned him a free flight to the Caribbean plus a discounted hotel rate.

BIKINI LINE the area where the edges of a standard swimsuit bottom or underwear rest against the skin. She made an appointment to get her bikini line waxed before her beach vacation.

NEW JACK a slang term for a newcomer, newbie or rookie, particularly someone inexperienced at a new job at a correctional facility. The inmates would always challenge the new jack to test his limits.

The puzzle grid is 22×20 letters and spans the entire page. It is printer-friendly. As long as your computer can open PDF files and your printer is loaded with standard 8.5" × 11" paper, you are all set to start solving.
