Six to 14 year-olds were asked in a survey for words they felt had been important during the year.
"Queen" has taken the top spot in a vote to find UK children's word of the year for 2022.Asked about the word Queen, many of the six to 14 year-olds described feelings of sadness and loss, as well as pride for the monarch who died in September.
By looking at the Oxford Children's Corpus, the largest children's English language database, it was found that Queen Elizabeth was often in the top 10 list of famous people written about by children. Examples from the survey include one girl writing: "I always say 'yes queen' to every woman/girl I know, I want them to feel empower[e]d. Every woman/girl I know is a queen in my eyes."
Meanwhile, the founder of EmpathyLab - an organisation aiming to show literature's role in building empathy awareness and skills in children - said this year's word shows how children were affected by current events.
