Officially given the definition as "characterised by a confident, independent and hedonistic attitude", The Collins Dictionary have revealed that their Word of the Year, is 'brat'.
"Inspired by the Charli XCX album, ‘brat’ has become one of the most talked about words of 2024," reads a statement on their website.
