Time is the most frequently used
noun in English (see http://
oxforddictionaries.com/words/the-
oec-facts-about-the-language
), and this release presents a
comprehensive revision of the
entry for this linguistic colossus.
Much of the added material here
indicates that a general sense of
time as a valuable commodity (of
which there often isn’t enough) has
been a preoccupation of English-
speakers throughout history, as
demonstrated by the phrases no
time to lose (first attested 1603),
time’s up (1673), time’s a-
wasting (1884), and compounds
such as time constraint (1956),
time pressure (1879), time-
critical (1955), and time-starved
(1894).
But it’s not all constraints and
pressures: we have also added new
senses dealing with things such as
time as a medium through which
one might travel (using a time
machine, time warp, or similar),
and the attitude to timekeeping
associated with particular types of
people (often with depreciative or
humorous reference to certain
nationalities), usually implying a
somewhat relaxed, haphazard, or
unreliable approach to punctuality.
