Being in ‘Goblin mode’: what the expression of the year means according to the Oxford dictionary and why it is fashionable



Do we know what Goblin Mode is? Likewise, if we tell you in Spanish, you do know what we are talking about: being lazy. It is the word of 2022 for the Oxford dictionary, and we have all practiced it at some point, although it is difficult for us to admit it in public. We immediately fall into that moment because, literally, it means being in goblin or monster mode, locked up and unpresentable.

And in that state we don’t even care what to eat: Pizza, so we don’t think about cooking, already cooked pasta that you just have to heat it up and even just cookies or chocolate. In previous years, words such as ‘coronavirus’ or ‘vaccine’ have won this award, and we wonder how we got here; to go from words related to the pandemic to the blanket. With technology, people are more and more at home.

In any case, all those who want to be in Goblin mode, know that it is not a question of being down like Bridget Jones. You have to take advantage because, this year, wandering around is in fashion.
