The word of the year is "congratulations", chosen by Euskaltzaindia and UZEI

  • Each year the two entities choose the word of the year and the word of 2022 have decided to be happy: "As for Irulegi's hand, we've chosen this word based on the media and its use on the net," they said.

Euskaltzaindia and UZEI have been chosen as words of congratulations. Each year they choose a word, and the word of 2022 has been widely heard since November. The Society of Sciences Aranzadi reported in November the discovery of the hand of Irulegi, a piece of bronze with “the oldest testimony written in Vascon”. In this piece you can read the word "sorioneku" and since then it has been read and heard in eleven variants.

That is why it is a fortunate word this year, "for its use in the media and in the network", according to Euskaltzaindia and UZEI. UZEI keeps track of the vocabulary daily, mainly exploring the media, among them "to develop and maintain tools based on the processing of natural language". Based on that, they make the selection.

Shadow of Irulegi's Hand

Euskaltzaindia explained the fingerprint left by Irulegi in the Basque Dictionary: "The lucky form had in a week of November the same number of queries as the average number of entries in this digital dictionary."
