The Oxford Dictionaries Hindi Word of the Year is a word or expression that has attracted a great deal of attention and reflects the ethos, mood, or preoccupations of the past year. Oxford Dictionaries has just announced the 2018 Hindi Word of the Year. It is: nari shakti.
Nari shakti expresses the increasing activism of women in various fields.
Derived from Sanskrit, nari means women and shakti means power. Today the term is used to mean women taking charge of their own lives - so girl power, for grown-ups.
