OK, since when is 9-11 a word? According to American Dialect Society, 9-11 is the word of the year. 9-11 is two numbers, a date, two words. [Link from Backup Brain]
If you look at their previous “Words of the Year” at http://www.americandialect.org/woty.html , the choice has often been a phrase.
Not only that, but it’s AMERICAN dialect, and nobody knows how to ruin the lingo like us ‘Mericans.
Monetize. Shoot me now, please. Making money into a verb.
