Ok, let’s start!
Today, we’re talking about the Internet – something we use daily. Knowing internet words is super important whether you’re checking websites, chatting with friends, or shopping online. You will learn different internet words to help you feel more comfortable online.
Website Navigation:
The Internet is like a vast library with countless books. Each website is a different book; to read them, you need to know how to navigate. Think of website navigation as finding your way around the library. You use a website’s menus, links, and buttons to move from one page to another.
Homepage:
Imagine a book with a cover. The homepage is like the cover of a website. It’s the first page you see when you visit a website. It tells you what the website is about.
Tabs:
You might want to read multiple books at once when you go to a library. Tabs in a web browser are like having different books open on different pages. You can click on a tab to switch between different web pages.
Cookie:
Cookies are like bookmarks in the library. Websites use them to remember your preferences and what you do on their site, making your online experience more convenient.
URL Bar/Address Bar:
The address bar is like a search box in the library. You can type the web address of a website, and your browser will take you there. It’s also where you can see the website’s address.
Cache:
Imagine if the library had a storage room to keep some books handy. That’s what the cache is. It stores web data temporarily on your device to make websites load faster when you visit them again.
Streaming:
Streaming is like watching a movie online without having to download it first. You can also stream music and other media content over the Internet.
Buffering:
When you stream a video or music, sometimes it needs to load a little bit before you can start watching or listening. So, buffering prevents interruptions.
Download Manager:
A download manager is like a librarian who helps you organize and track the books (or files) you download from the Internet.
Firewall:
Think of a firewall as a protective shield around your computer. It keeps out any unwanted or harmful visitors from the Internet.
Router:
A router is like a postman delivering letters to different houses. It connects multiple devices in your home or office to the Internet.
