Urban Dictionary adds new word ‘Israeled’, meaning ‘Claiming anything that belongs to another’

Screen grab from the website of Urban Dictionary

Urban Dictionary, a well-known online dictionary, has included the word "Israeled" in its entries.

The dictionary defines it as claiming something that is the property of another person as one‍‍`s own.

"At a restaurant, someone asked to share my table. I gave in to it. They eventually ejected me from the table, citing a meeting. I got Israeled, so to speak," a user wrote in his entry.



The website Urban Dictionary was founded in 1999 and offers definitions that frequently center on common usages of language that are not included in official dictionaries. As a result, people who are interested in slang, jargon, internet culture, and popular culture frequently visit the website.
