OXFORD SCHOLAR -- NOT!
    Homer Simpson's favourite expression - "doh!" - has made it into the Oxford English Dictionary.
    People.com reports the phrase is one of 1,250 new or revised entries published Thursday on the OED Web site. It will be added to the next edition of the print dictionary, though its publication is years away.
    The OED's online edition defines Homer's trademark expression -- which is usually accompanied by a slap to the forehead -- as "expressing frustration at the realisation that things have turned out badly or not as planned or that one has just said or done something foolish. Also implying that another person has said or done something foolish."

I use this though http://www.yourdictionary.com/      Ru
