Subject: Word-of-the-year (early sweepstakes entry)



Here's my early favorite: sero-discordant



Context (N. Y. Times article 3/13/95, B1, "Positively Negative"):



...There are so many relationships in which one partner is H.I.V.-positive

and one partner H.I.V.-negative that the phenomenon has earned its own

neologism: "sero-discordant" couples.
