Neologisms: diffused

From open-dictionary.com - the free dictionary.

Diffused Neologisms are those newly coined words which have already reached a significant audience (such as those perhaps used publicly by prominent figures in the popular culture or which have entered a significant subculture (e.g., jargon or lingo), but which have not gained full mainstream acceptance (at least in one of their uses).

For more accepted words which are still fairly recent in origin, see Neologisms:stable. For words which are even less stable (such as having been just coined here at Wiktionary by a visitor), see Protologisms
