These words really all have to do with either quarantine or the Presidential Election, 2 things that defined 2020. The word "quarantine" was a weird word to use before the pandemic, and now all of these words are ones we use every day. Some of these I have never heard of !

These words reflect how our society is able to adapt to change so quickly. Within one year all of us went from never hearing words like hydroxychloroquine or distance learning to using them in our everyday conversations.

# data[].attributes.body
-Pandemic
-Social Reform
-2020 Election
-Medical terms

All of these words have to do with being aware of the people around you. Whether it be protecting others from COVID-19 by wearing mask and social distancing, or realizing the racial injustice within our society, it is important to note that the words of 2020 forced us to become more aware of our surroundings.

# data[].attributes.body
All of these words have been used before 2020, but because of the unprecedented circumstances the usage of these words have been blown out of proportion. For instance, the organization BLM was founded in 2013, but because people's willingness to speak out against problems in 2020 the movement spread like wildfire. Essentially 2020 has had an amplification effect where everything has gotten more severe.

These words were real words before the pandemic but they weren't used as often as they are now with quarantining being almost a dystopian world with a zombie outbreak or flesh eating disease. Now it's used everywhere from schools, to hospital, to government, to advertisement.

All these words have to do with COVID-19 in the light of this year and the precautions and severities of the virus. These words are always spoken with each other in conversations talking about how one needs to social distance or else they might be stuck in quarantine and how hard the essential workers are working in order to treat those who were not following those safety protocols.

# data[].attributes.body
These words seemed to have just emerged out of this year not as slang but used everywhere from normal everyday speech to the professional announcements by government officials and medical experts. These words while existing in the past have become popularized and brought into the mainstream lexicon.

-Quarantine
-Social Distancing

At first, these words meant essentially nothing, however now they hold a deeper meaning, and I suppose I find that interesting how depending on your circumstance, one word could mean more then just a simple definition.

There have been patterns of people getting lost into his or her cell phone (i.e. doomscrolling) as well as acts working towards social distancing essentially everywhere you go.

# data[].attributes.body
These particular, like the other words given on the form, are words used commonly through the 2020 pandemic. We notice that doomscrolling and blursday are made up words, i.e. slang terms. What we also notice is questions. What exactly do these made up terms mean? Luckily, for the most part these words are self explanatory.

# data[].attributes.body
doomscrolling
Blursday
social distancing

# data[].attributes.body
All of those words used to mean so differently and now when we hear them or even later in the future we will only think of one word: 2020. We have had to adapt to the uncertain changes and have a new "normal." We will never take family time for granted, times like these have taught us such valuable lessons.

# data[].attributes.body
Pandemic, 2020, social norm.

It's just a repeated cycle that we have to live with. For example I have gotten sent home due to contact tracing, had to do remote learning, which caused me to be home away from everyone. I would never think I would need to constantly watch how close I get to people and how many video calls I get on just to keep myself safe.

# data[].attributes.body
These particular words are ones that we would have never experienced, learned, or even heard of before the pandemic happened. No one would have ever thought that these words sum up 2020 and now we are using them on the daily as they are the new "norm."

The majority of the words on this list have to do with the pandemic and how it has affected or changed society. If we did not go through this, I feel that many people would not know what terms like P.P.E. and contact tracing mean.

On top of simply using words that surround the topic of the pandemic, some words used in the article do not necassarily pertain to it. Some had to do solely with the election, a very fierce topic in 2020--it is no surprise that it was included.

I think it's interesting how words like isolation and high risk could've been commonly used words before the pandemic however now when we hear them we tend to only associate them with covid and 2020.

After doomscrolling for hours it would end up being 2 am so going to bed late meant waking up late. The cycle just kept going which made the days blur together since there was no structure.

Blursday made everyday seem the same. It was boring so everyone mostly stayed on their phones to pass time.

Back then these words probably wouldn't have had much of a relationship, but now they are grouped together as effects of covid.

A pattern I see is that all these words took on a heavier meaning this year. Remote learning and zoom were because we couldn't meet in person. Essential workers became a commonly used word because of all the lockdowns around the world.

These words meant nothing to us before 2020 and they can hopefully mean nothing to us, once again, several years down the road.
