Apparently so, according to the new edition of the Doxford Concise Northumbrian Dictionary, which is published this week. This the nineteenth edition to date, has over two hundred new additions. Definitions for words such as Clous, Hemelheed and Cowieteacake are included for the first time as are many additional definitions for established words in common use, Alnwick Fair has been added to the definitions of the word Shite. Director of the Doxford Concise Northumbrian Dictionary, Mrs. Pandora Boxkite said “We assembled a team of eminent linguists including Professor Wall, founder of the Howling Lane School of Language and a well known public speaker. Alnwick Fair could have been added to the dictionary thirty years ago but we decided to wait until it became a common definition of Shite in everyday language. People now consider them both as the same”. The definition of Shite now reads Shite Pronunciation: shy-t interjectionally also sh-EYE-t Function: noun. Etymology: (assumed) Middle English, from Old English scite; akin to Old English -scita to defecate, Date: circa 1585 usually vulgar : Excrement, an act of defecation, Nonsense, Crap: any of several local civic dignitaries, Damn: a worthless, offensive, or detestable person: Alnwick Fair.
