Doctacosa

vocabulary

You know those people that seem oblivious to their surroundings when walking around? The ones that tend to be most often messing with their phones, or sometimes lost in a book? The ones who will usually walk in the middle of a sidewalk or corridor, sometimes swaying from side to side, usually walking too slowly for the crowd?

I propose a new word to call these people: ZOMOBI. A contraction of “zombie” and “mobile”, zomobi describes how they're most often brainlessly moving ahead, often with a mobile device in their hands. As a bonus point, it works in both the languages I use the most: English and French.

So, when you're out and about, don't be a zomobi: pay attention to what's going on around you!
