Menurut oxforddictionaries.com yang saya kutip 23 Juli 2012: "The Second Edition of the 20-volume Oxford English Dictionary contains full entries for 171,476 words in current use, and 47,156 obsolete words. To this may be added around 9,500 derivative words included as subentries."
Di Indonesia bisa milyaran lho. Kata-katanya atau kutu-kutunya? Menurut teman saya, yang penting, "Don't judge book by it's cover lah...". Sepertinya jaman dulu masih lebih parah dengan munculnya stensilan Enny Arrow yang covernya "Pelajaran Fisika untuk SMA".
