Lake Superior State University (LSSU) has updated its list of "banned" words to include some of the most oft-used slang terms from 2014.

Making its way to the "List of Words Banished from the Queen's English for Misuse, Over-use and General Uselessness" are terms like "bae," "polar vortex" and 10 others. The list is seeing its 40th edition and, based on nominations from students, has compiled more than 800 entries.

According to the Huffington Post, the late W.T. Rabe, a former public relations director at LSSU, started the list at the top of the calendar year in 1976.

Here are the new entries with what they are supposed to mean, relying on the Urban Dictionary for reference in some cases:

Bae: A one-syllable term for "baby" that also serves as an acronym for "before anyone else;" one's significant other.

Polar Vortex: Was once a meteorological term for a system blowing a ton of cold air through the U.S., but now just another way to say "it's cold outside."

Hack (as in, "life hack"): In a video game, one uses a hack (also known as cheat) to gain an advantage extremely easily. "Life hacks" are simply short cuts, but the word "hack" has more serious overtones, like bypassing a computer's security systems to steal information.

Skill set: The phrase means exactly the same thing without the word "set."

Swag: Supposed to mean that someone has confidence in the way they do things, but overuse has led to its use in several different ways.

Foodie: Someone who likes food, but the word carries a bit of a snobbish overtone.

Curate(d): Normally referred to with fine art, ancient artifacts and other valuable or rare objects, but now just used to describe picking something out.

Friend-raising: Getting your friends to donate money to a cause because they are your friends.

Cra-cra (pronounced cray-cray): Another way to say "crazy," but in a playful sense.

Enhanced interrogation: The politically correct term for "torture."

Takeaway: Most often heard from news anchors, sportscasters and other sorts of talking heads, but it really is a sports term for the change of possession in a game.

Nation (in reference to the fan base of a sports team): Probably all started with "Red Sox Nation" after the team broke their World Series curse, but now every team has a "Nation."
