Oxford English or Real English

SO, the OED (Oxford English Dictionary) is looking for origins of 'neologisms' over the past few decades. One of these is 'disco' which a number of contributors bizarrely think referred originally to a short dress!?!?!?!?

This is just silly. Remember: the word is an abbreviation of 'discotheque' - a place where they have a lot of discs (records), like a bibliothèque is a place where they have a lot of 'biblios' (Greek for books) i.e. a library. It came from the French!!! The Sixties and Seventies were decades when Britain realised it was part of Europe and always had been. Something our US-centred politics and xenophobic politicians and media have sadly since forgotten.
