Technical word (तकनीकी शब्द)

Tablet
A tablet, or tablet PC, is a portable computer that uses a touchscreen as its primary input device. Most tablets are slightly smaller and weigh less than the average laptop. While some tablets include fold out keyboards, others, such as the Apple iPad and Motorola Xoom, only offer touchscreen input.

Early tablet touchscreens were designed to work with light pens, but most modern tablets support human touch input. Many tablets now support multitouch input, which allows you to perform gestures with multiple fingers, such as pinching an image to zoom out, or spreading your fingers apart to zoom in. Tablets without physical keyboards allow you to enter text using a pop-up keyboard that appears on the screen.

TFTP
Stands for "Trivial File Transfer Protocol." TFTP is a file transfer protocol similar to FTP, but is much more limited. Unlike FTP, TFTP does not support authentication and cannot change directories or list directory contents. Therefore, it is most often used to transfer individual files over a local network.

TFTP may also be used to boot a computer system from a network-connected storage device.While FTP connections use the TCP protocol, TFTP connections are made over UDP, which requires less overhead than TCP. This means TFTP file transfers may be faster, but less reliable than FTP transfers. Port 20 is used for FTP transfers, while port 69 is used for transferring files via TFTP.

TModel
1) A tModel is a data structure representing a service type (a generic representation of a registered service) in the UDDI (Universal Description, Discovery, and Integration) registry. Each business registered with UDDI categorizes all of its Web services according to a defined list of service types. Businesses can search the registry's listed service types to find service providers. The tModel is an abstraction for a technical specification of a service type; it organizes the service type's information and makes it accessible in the registry database. Another UDDI data structure, the bindingTemplate organizes information for specific instances of service types. When businesses want to make their specification-compliant services available to the registry, they include a reference to the tModelKey for that service type in their bindingTemplate data.

Toslink
Toslink is a type of digital audio connection developed by Toshiba Corporation. It uses a fiber optic cable to transmit an audio signal in the form of pulses of light. A single Toslink cable can be used to carry a mono, stereo, or even a surround audio signal.

Toslink is similar to the Sony/Philips Digital Interfance, known as S/PDIF. It provides the same digital audio data as S/PDIF, but uses a light beam instead of an electrical current to send the data. Because the Toslink cable does not use electrical currents, the connection is immune to electrical or magnetic interference. Toslink connections are most commonly found on high-end home theater receivers, MiniDisc players, and professional audio equipment, as well as Power Mac G5 computers.

Toolbar
A toolbar is a set of icons or buttons that are part of a software program's interface or an open window. When it is part of a program's interface, the toolbar typically sits directly under the menu bar. For example, Adobe Photoshop includes a toolbar that allows you to adjust settings for each selected tool. If the paintbrush is selected, the toolbar will provide options to change the brush size, opacity, and flow. Microsoft Word has a toolbar with icons that allow you to open, save, and print documents, as well as change the font, text size, and style of the text. Like many programs, the Word toolbar can be customized by adding or deleting options. It can even be moved to different parts of the screen.

Token
Besides those small shiny coins that allow you to play video games, there are three different types of tokens


1. In networking, a token is a series of bits that circulate on a token-ring network. When one of the systems on the network has the "token," it can send information to the other computers. Since there is only one token for each token-ring network, only one computer can send data at a time.

2. In programming, a token is a single element of a programming language. There are five categories of tokens: 1) constants, 2) identifiers, 3) operators, 4) separators, and 5) reserved words. For example, the reserved words "new" and "function" are tokens of the JavaScript language. Operators, such as +, -, *, and /, are also tokens of nearly all programming languages.

3. In security systems, a hard token is small card that displays an identification code

Torrent
A torrent is a file sent via the BitTorrent protocol. It can be just about any type of file, such as a movie, song, game, or application. During the transmission, the file is incomplete and therefore is referred to as a torrent. Torrent downloads that have been paused or stopped cannot be opened as regular files, since they do not contain all the necessary data. However, they can often be resumed using a BitTorrent client, as long as the file is available from another server.

Trolling
The act of deliberately posting false or inflammatory information in order to start a flame war or cause aggravation to others.

Touchscreen
A touchscreen is a display that also serves as an input device. Some touchscreens require a proprietary pen for input, though most modern touchscreens detect human touch. Since touchscreen devices accept input directly through the screen, they do not require external input devices, such as mice and keyboards. This makes touchscreens ideal for computer kiosks, as well as portable devices, such as tablets and smartphones.

Traceroute
When computers communicate over the Internet, there are often many connections made along the way. This is because the Internet is made up of a network of networks, and two different computers may be on two separate networks in different parts of the world. Therefore, if a computer is to communicate with another system on the Internet, it must send data through a series of small networks, eventually getting to the Internet backbone, and then again traveling to a smaller network where the destination computer resides.

Trackball
A trackball is an input device used to enter motion data into computers or other electronic devices. It serves the same purpose as a mouse, but is designed with a moveable ball on the top, which can be rolled in any direction. Instead of moving the whole device, you simply roll the moveable ball on top of the trackball unit with your hand to generate motion input.

Transistor
A transistor is a basic electrical component that alters the flow of electrical current. Transistors are the building blocks of integrated circuits, such as computer processors, or CPUs. Modern CPUs contain millions of individual transistors that are microscopic in size.

Most transistors include three connection points, or terminals, which can connect to other transistors or electrical components.

Tweet
For most of history, "tweet" has been the sound a bird makes. However, with the advent of Twitter, the word "tweet" has taken on a whole new meaning.

A tweet is an online posting, or "micro-blog" created by a Twitter user. The purpose of each tweet is to answer the question, "What are you doing?" However, tweets can contain any information you want to post, such as your plans for the weekend, your thoughts about a TV show, or even notes from a lecture. You can publish a tweet using a computer or a mobile phone. Once published, the tweet will appear on the Twitter home pages of all the users that are following you. Likewise, your Twitter home page will display the most recent tweets of the users that you are following.

Troll
Trolls are typically thought of as scary creatures that live underneath bridges. While these mythical creatures may only exist in legend, "Internet trolls" are real and cause real problems. In computing, the term "troll" refers to a person who posts offensive, incendiary, or off topic comments online. These comments may appear in Web forums, on Facebook walls, after news articles or blog entries, or in online chat rooms.

TIFF
Stands for "Tagged Image File Format." It is graphics file format created in the 1980's to be the standard image format across multiple computer platforms. The TIFF format can handle color depths ranging from 1-bit to 24-bit. Since the original TIFF standard was introduced, people have been making many small improvements to the format, so there are now around 50 variations of the TIFF format. So much for a universal format. Recently, JPEG has become the most popular universal format, because of its small file size and Internet compatibility.

Terminal Adapter
An electronic device that interfaces a PC with a host computer via an ISDN phone line. They are often called "ISDN modems"; however, because they are digital, Terminal Adapters are not modems at all.

Terminal Server
A special-purpose computer with places to plug in several modems on one side, and a connection to a LAN or host machine on the other side. The terminal server does the work of passing connections on to the appropriate node. Most terminal servers can provide PPP or SLIP services if connected to the Internet.

Common Mistakes To Be Avoided (आम गलतियों को टाला जा सकता)

Some Any

Both ‘ some’ and ‘any’ are used to refer to indefinite quantities, i.e., when it is not necessary to specify a number. For example, ‘I would like some milk’ indicates that the speaker wants milk, but it is not stated how much of it he or she wants. Similarly, ‘Is there any cake left?’ does not specify how much cake the speaker wants there to be; any amount will do for the purpose of the question. There are important differences between the two that must be grasped for usage, however.

Some

‘ Some’ is commonly used in affirmative statements, such as I would like to have some fun.

‘ Any’ is hardly ever used in such statements, except to emphasise that the quality of the object does not matter. For example,‘I would like any apples’ suggests that the speaker does not care what kind of apples they are (indicating a desperate need or desire for apples), whereas‘ I would like some apples’does not suggest anything about the quality of the apples or desperation of the speaker.

Any

‘ Any’ is commonly used in negative statements, such as‘We do not have any apples.’ Here, ‘some’ may not be used.

‘ Any’ is also used in affirmative statements, if the statements contain negative words such as ‘hardly’, ‘barely’, ‘never’, ‘without’, ‘little’, etc. For example,‘ We hardly have any apples’ cannot be rewritten as‘We hardly have some apples.’

In questions

While both ‘any’ and ‘some’ can be used in questions, ‘any’ is more common and natural in this form.

‘ Do you have any apples?’can be rewritten as‘Do you have some apples?’However, ‘ some’ is not always applicable. For example, in the case of‘ Do you have any idea what the score is?’, ‘ any’ cannot be replaced by ‘some’.

‘ Some’ is more commonly used in offers and requests, such as Would you like some tea?

If clauses

Both ‘ some’ and ‘ any are common in ‘ if’ clauses, with similar meanings, as in‘ If you need some/any assistance, feel free to give me a ring.’

English Improving ,Tips of the Lesson (अंग्रेजी में सुधार, दिन की टिप्स)

Concrete Words Do Not Change

The benefit of using concrete words is that perceptions of these words do not often change over time, as people grow older. While it is still important to use abstract words, concrete words allow writers to create for a wide age range, if they desire. While a word like "love" changes greatly throughout a person's life, the words "car" or "cold" do not change. The idea of a car may be simpler for a child than an adult, but they both know that a car is an object that moves and takes people places. Take advantage of this fact when writing for different ages. 

Writers have a plethora of words to choose from, and two types of these words are concrete and abstract. There are many benefits of using concrete words, as they increase your ability to write for a wide audience and to be specific and engaging. Abstract words are necessary in life and in writing, but, as a writer, be sure to also use concrete words to show your story through writing, not just tell it. Using these tips can help help you grow in your writing and English skills, and to better understand how readers see a piece of work.

Ambiguous in a Sentence

The word "ambiguous" is commonly used in the English language. It is a fitting word to use in almost any context, as it is common enough for people to understand in everyLesson conversation and formal enough to be used in a research paper or other professional writing. Using "ambiguous" correctly, however, involves going beyond its surface meaning and being able to use the word in all of its aspects. For this reason, it is important to learn the many ways that the word "ambiguous" can be used in a sentence. According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, "ambiguous" refers to something that is unclear, doubtful, or inexact. What is more, the word can be used as an adjective (its most common usage), a noun, a verb, or an adverb. The following sentences will show you how to form a correct sentence for "ambiguous" in each of its forms.

Ambiguous as a Noun

The noun form of "ambiguous" is "ambiguity," which is often used, but not as much as its adjectival counterpart. "Ambiguity" refers to the state of being ambiguous, doubtful, or unclear. This word is actually very easy to use in a sentence. For instance, the following are examples of its many uses: "In the end, what makes Dostoevsky such a great novelist is the ambiguity that he presents to the reader," or, "Stephen always felt that there was far too much ambiguity in his workplace. What frustrated him the most was a lack of clear communication and a uniform direction for getting things done."

Ambiguous as an Adjective

"Ambiguous" is perhaps the most commonly used of the variations of the word. In fact, you can substitute "ambiguous" into the above sentences. For instance, "In the end, what makes Dostoevsky such a great novelist are his ambiguous texts." Additionally you can say, "Stephen always felt that his workplace was too ambiguous when it came to giving workers orders. What frustrated him the most was a lack of clear communication a uniform direction for getting things done." As you can see, various forms of the word are easy to use interchangeably with little change to the general context of the sentence.

Ambiguous as an Adverb

When you use "ambiguous" as an adverb, you are using it to refer to an action that is being done in an "ambiguous" manner. The following sentences are great examples of its correct usage: "Sarah very ambiguously told her husband that she wasn't feeling well, which obviously masked her real feelings." Similarly, "John did not understand the concepts in the class toLesson only because he felt the professor explained them much too ambiguously."
