Webster includes “biodiesel” for 2006
Posted By RichC on July 10, 2006
Frank Giovinazzi pointed out in CarBuyersNotebook, an automotive website I read regularly, that the term “biodiesel” has made it into the 2006 Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary, the 11th edition. I’m not sure if ‘making Webster’s dictionary’ is the definition of success, but at least everyone will know how to spell it correctly.
As for Webster’s definition, well its about as generic as a dictionary can get: “a fuel that is similar to diesel fuel and is derived from usually vegetable sources (as soybean oil).â€
