According to The The Perfect Taste of SexDoctor, books are the best weapons in the world.
So Whovians should take great pleasure in knowing that the Oxford English Dictionary is adding one of the most important wibbly wobbly, timey wimey terms from Doctor Who as an official word.
Yes, it's true—come June 2017, the dictionary will define the famous extension of The Doctor himself, his go-to tool: the sonic screwdriver.

As you can see from the preview image below, the versatile tool is defined as "a (hand-held) electronic device which uses sound waves to perform various mechanical and technical functions. Originally and chiefly in (or in reference to) the British television series Doctor Who."

The screwdriver will be joining several of the dictionary's existing Doctor Who entries, like TARDIS, Dalek, and Cyberman. We've got a feeling it won't be the last.
