Teacher: Good morning, John. How are you today?
John: Good morning, teacher. I’m doing well, thank you. I’ve been thinking about how technology has changed the way we communicate and the expressions we use in English.
Teacher: That’s an interesting topic, John. Technology has indeed had a significant impact on our language. What expressions have caught your attention?
John: Well, for starters, there’s “to Google something.” It’s become so common to say, “I’ll Google it” when we want to look up information.
Teacher: Absolutely, John. “Googling” has become synonymous with searching for information online. Another one is “to binge-watch.” People use it when they watch multiple episodes of a TV series in one sitting.
John: Right, and speaking of TV series, there’s “spoiler alert” when you want to warn someone not to reveal key plot details.
Teacher: Excellent point, John. “Spoiler alert” is crucial for avoiding those unwanted plot revelations. How about “to go viral”? It’s often used when something becomes extremely popular on the internet.
John: Yes, “going viral” means spreading rapidly online. And then there’s “to unfriend” on social media when you remove someone from your friend list.
Teacher: That’s correct, John. It’s the opposite of “to friend” someone. And don’t forget “to download” and “to upload,” which are fundamental in the digital age.
John: Of course, downloading is getting files from the internet, and uploading is sending files to it. And what about “to swipe left” or “to swipe right” on dating apps?
Teacher: Great examples, John. Swiping left usually means you’re not interested, while swiping right shows you’re interested in someone’s profile. And for a more recent one, “Zoom fatigue” has become prevalent with all the online meetings we have now.
John: Yes, Zoom fatigue is when you’re tired from too many virtual meetings. And finally, “to be tech-savvy” is important in today’s job market, meaning you’re knowledgeable about technology.
Teacher: Absolutely, John. Being tech-savvy is a valuable skill. You’ve covered some essential tech-related expressions today. Keep up the good work in exploring the ever-evolving world of English expressions related to technology.
John: Thank you, Teacher. I’ll continue to stay up-to-date with these expressions as technology continues to advance.
