"Nerd"..Many of you have seen nerd people, talked to them, be friends with them, seen them or the least heard of the word "nerd"..But how many of you actually know the meaning of it?
From dictionary.com, nerd or nurd means :
1) a stupid, irritating, ineffectual, or unattractive person.
2) an intelligent but single-minded person obsessed with a nonsocial hobby or pursuit.
The word turns up in a Dr. Seuss book from 1950 ("If I Ran the Zoo"), which may have contributed to its rise.
I'd prefer the 2nd meaning which i think explains most of the nerd people we have encounter..
Now we know the true meaning of the word "nerd"..Let the journey begin..
