This word search puzzle is themed. It hides 18 words or phrases which only first appeared in dictionaries in 2011. Our personal favorite is JET PACK. 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?

● AUTO-CORRECTION a feature on a phone, computer, or other device that automatically fixes spelling mistakes or changes words as you type. My phone's auto-correction changed the word I typed into something completely different.

● BLUE SCREEN a blue screen that appears on a computer or other device, often when a serious system error occurs and the device cannot operate normally. My computer suddenly displayed a blue screen, so I had to restart it.

● JET PACK a device worn on a person's back that uses powerful jets of gas or air to lift them into the air and allow them to fly. The pilot used a jet pack to fly over the crowd during the air show.

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.
