It is not necessary to immerse yourself in the material to assess its quality, relevance in a particular situation or interest for the reader, viewer, buyer. And in the XXI century, when time is sorely lacking, and the amount of content has increased many times, a format convenient for the consumer is needed. Therefore, the preview came to the fore, these miniature annotations for a superficial acquaintance. The term appeared in the vastness of Russia a couple of decades ago, but it has already firmly entered into everyday communication, so it’s worth a little more to learn about the meanings put into it.
How did it appear and is used?
The original English definition of preview existed for a long time. And thanks to the Internet penetrated into the Russian language. As part of the literal translation, “preview” is a kind of picture for preview. It is enough to turn on the computer and sort the graphic files whose icons under certain conditions turn into a small copy of the original. This allows you to quickly navigate in search of the desired photo, even if the owner is confused in the same name.
At the same time, citizens added the suffix -shk-, which is why on the open spaces of the Runet and in live communication, a sweet and such a homely "preview" often slips.
What values are hiding?
When a small picture, when clicked, expands into a large one, this is the basic interpretation of the term in question. However, do not limit yourself to them. The direct translation of “previews” does not convey the entire depth of the word, which often means any brief information about a large amount of data. Therefore, several peer formats are possible:
- picture;
- video;
- audio;
- text.
Such an annotation can be an independent work and can seriously differ from the original, although indicate its features. Any quality presentation made is a preview, even if we are talking about a plant construction project.
There are also special cuts in the entertainment industry. When in advertising, the viewer is shown the most successful and exciting shots to lure to the cinema. Or before the release of the album, the group releases a special track composed of pieces of musical compositions. They are often called teasers or "teasers", but in the broad sense they mean exactly the preview. This concept is relevant even for a stand in a perfumery shop where consultants offer to “try” a new fragrance.
How useful is it in everyday life?
Whether a contemporary knows the word or not, he regularly turns to probes and fact-finding things. To save time and money, just go over the brands, grab the most interesting moments for yourself, and choose from the best. It is through the preview that the world is able to live at such a fast pace.
