-gate

What is -gate?


1.

When there is a personal or work controversy, just add "gate" at the end to dramatize it, similar to Janet Jackson's boob-gate during the Super Bowl.

I'm sorry about (fill-in-the-blank)-gate today at our meeting. I don't know why everyone had to make comments about you. It was entirely inappropriate.
