Add “keming” to the dictionary

The earliest recorded use of the word “keming” was in 2008. It’s a bit of visual wordplay; kerning is the adjustment of space between letters, and if you kern the word “kerning” improperly, the r and n can merge to form an m. “Kerning” becomes “keming”.

The word has spread widely, and has elevated from an internet joke to a word in common use. It's time Merriam-Webster added it to their dictionary.
