Swift’s tour and film were the “most sensational, record-breaking cultural phenomenon of the year.”
Even though Taylor Swift didn’t specifically win an award this time, it feels like another crowning achievement for the pop singer that “Eras” was chosen as “Vibe of the Year” 2023. This year’s “The Eras” tour, which itself resulted in a concert film, has transformed the word “Eras” from being used in a historical context (for an era) to a pop culture phenomenon. The “Vibe of the Year” goes to the makers of “Dictionary.com” chosen – in 2023 for the first time. Otherwise, the website was primarily concerned with the “Word of the Year”.
A word that was searched for and found
“The word we chose for ‘Vibe of the Year’ is based on the shared feeling that we are all looking for ways to define the ever-changing phases of our cultural and personal history,” it says on “Dictionary.com” continues and explained that the choice was inspired by the “most sensational, record-breaking and unignorable cultural phenomenon of the year” – “The Eras” tour.

The era of “Eras”
Since Taylor Swift chose the term to introduce and relive all the Eras of her career so far on her tour, the word evolved into common usage to the point that more and more people were using it to describe “their own personal era “define – and redefine, including the ending of old eras and the beginning of new ones, and adapting to the era in which they currently find themselves,” according to Dictionary.com. So soon you didn’t even have to know Swift and her use of the word to use it yourself.
Finally, the website defines the “Vibe of the Year” as the “periods of time in a person’s life that are characterized by something special and striking, e.g. B. through a certain emotional state, a relationship, an achievement or an interest”.
