Читать полностью…Not a joke, not an idiom... Is it a promotion of channels? Thanks God, no. It's a vocabulary list for newbies on "Winter" topic :)

By the way, that sign on the truck was made as a part of the advertising campaign of Mercedes-Benz in 2000.
...meanwhile, we continue our tech topic.
By the way, "font" has various meanings. For instance, it could either be a set of letters and symbols in a particular design and size or a large container in a church, usually made of stone, that holds the water used for baptisms.
Well, the last one is not so common, yet one more example is even more interesting: "font" means an abundant source, "She was a font of wisdom and good sense".
By the way, Wi-Fi means Wireless Fidelity. Fidelity = accuracy with which an electronic system reproduces the sound or image of its input signal - or the quality of being faithful :)

A new list of vocabulary is here! Some important notes to bear in mind:
“Equipment” is an uncountable word so you need to say “a piece of equipment”. It is a very general use word that can be used to describe almost anything mechanical.
“Appliance” is typically used in the phrase “electrical appliances” (eg irons and kettles) that are less advanced technology.
There weren't enough idioms lately, that's why today we decided to share the whole list of political vocabulary that we found for you:

Hey!
It's a long read time!
We have found a captivating issue on Quora for you: What's the difference between terrible and horrible?
Here is a combination of two answers:
Terrible and horrible both are adjectives but, they have totally different meanings.
Terrible :- 1. extremely bad or serious.
For e.g:"a terrible crime"
2. causing or likely to cause terror; sinister.
For e.g: "terrible face"
Horrible :- 1. causing or likely to cause horror; shocking
For e.g: "horrible murder"
2. very unpleasant
Moreover, one of the several definitions of terrible is not only quite different from horrible but also unknown to most folks. Terrible also means intense or extreme, as in a terrible beauty. In this it resembles awful, a word that once meant awe-inspiring.
