Another great video! Other important verbs are download, upload, sign in, sign out, sign up. Sign in and sign out means the same as log in and log out. Sign up usually means to create an account on a site like Google, Yahoo, etc. It opens a form for you to fill in your data.

I confuse between hook up and plug in.They both mean the same thing or not? Thanks. I'm very happy to watch your videos.
@SimpleEnglishVideos
5 жыл бұрын
They have very similar meanings Art AK and in some situations they're interchangeable. E.g. "Is the printer plugged into/hooked up to your computer? You could use either verb here and it would mean the same thing. Plug in is a bit more specific. It's reserved for when we connect electrical equipment to the main supply of electricity or to another piece of electrical equipment and it's about placing a plug or connector in a socket. Hook up has a wider range of meanings to do with connections. Again we can use it to talk about connecting equipment. But we might also hook people up to the internet or to IV drips.

Switch on is the same as turn on and switch off is the same as turn off. I guess there’s just more ways of saying it. Turn on can also mean many other things too. I usually turn on/turn off things that don’t have a switch and switch on/switch off things that have a switch and not a button, but there’s nothing stopping you from using either one or the other.
