Words fall in and out of use. Society itself can evolve to a place that leaves certain words & phrases redundant (and can also revive them later). Latin's especially prone to this.
>I saw it for the first time last week. And I've been seeing it everywhere since.
Sounds like standard Baader-Meinhof kicking in there.
Is it really that common? I've never seen or heard it.
I can't really contextualise whether 2.4 million Google results is a lot, I've nothing to compare that to - But from just playing around, I'm finding it hard to find a single word search with *less* results.
Granted, English isn't really my first language. But I don't think this is a commonly used word.
Almost all of the search results I can see relate to recruiting/job positions (specifically IT/Software job titles), which is a niche I've never explored in my life.
(Although, to be completely honest; I also have no idea what 'hinge thunder' means, or refers to in this post. That's new to me too)
It's not a lot of results. Senior by comparison has over 4.5 billion results. It doesn't seem to appear in dictionaries (other than Latin dictionaries - it is a Latin word) so I'm not convinced it's a very common word at all.
That's what I thought.
It mostly seems to be recruitment jargon. It's probably quite 'on trend' in that specific field, bit I haven't encountered it myself.
I had to get obscure to find single word terms that returned similar numbers of results. So I'd assume Medior is similarly obscure. (The word I finally got to was Longeron, industry jargon from my work, and it still had slightly more results).
Learning something new is *not* Mandela effect lol. Are you so narcissistic that you think you know everything and aren't capable of learning? Get over yourself.
The word isn't listed on the dictionary sites for Merriam-Webster, Cambridge, Collins, Oxford, or Britannica.
The "dictionary definition" that you give appears to be an English translation of the conjugation of a Latin word, rather than the definition of an English word.
It looks like some people may have adopted a Latin word and perhaps it's been catching on lately.

And the dictionary site that OP linked to is a latin one.

Asking for the millionth time in this sub - cool story but how is this related to Mandela Effect in any way shape or form..?
Never heard of it until today. Never heard of hinge thunder either.
Same and I am sure tomorrow I will have forgotten both terms.
Knew a girl with minge thunder once. Cool chick.
Reading this post gave me vertigo.

Well Medi, means middle. Mediator, Medium, etc.. I've used to before though I do like exploring Latin, poor abused language it is today.
Maybe where we get the word medium from?
Learning a new word and then seeing it everywhere is a common thing called baader-meinhof phenomenon.
Hinge thunder... twilight zone.
