Well, almost. Getting the term “Google” included in “The definitive record of the English language” as a verb is the equivalent of getting knighted. Next time you say “I’ll google it“, it’s no longer slang, it’s proper English, meaning: “To use the Google search engine to find information on the Internet.
trans. To search for information about (a person or thing) using the Google search engine.”
