Good News! Hinduphobia Is Finally In An official Dictionary
In mid 2020 we wrote to Oxford English Dictionary with our article on Hinduphobia to request they make an entry as it goes back to the late Nineteenth Century.
We are especially pleased to see that they have acknowledged the etymology and long history of this word in the English language.
The definition is superb, as simple to comprehend as it is elegant.
Our many thanks to the Oxford English Dictionary for correcting this long standing literary injustice. Let’s see this definition in all the Oxford editions and other reference texts.
Now we all have an official definition to work with and can all move forward.
Happy Guru Poornima everyone. May the light of truth always shine and conquer avidya.
