2010.10.21

Since so much computer jargon is borrowed from the vocabulary of the analog world - Web “pages”, “windows”, “wallpaper”, etc. - it's no surprise that this word is being put to good purpose as well. We hope you enjoy the Thursday edition!

BOOKMARK   ブックマーク、ブックマークに加える A bookmark (noun) is a record of a Web address that allows you to quickly return to a Web page you've seen before. To bookmark (verb) a Web page is to create such a record. 名詞の bookmark は、以前見たウェブサイトのページにすぐに戻れるように、ウェブアドレスを記録したもの、つまり、ブックマークのことです。 動詞の bookmark は、あるウェブサイトのページの記録を作ること、つまり、ブックマークに加える、という意味です。

	Hold on. I think I still have that company's Web site in my bookmarks. When you back up a computer, are bookmarks automatically saved too? I've bookmarked some of my favorite Internet radio stations so that I can listen to them whenever I want to.

It's been a pleasure!
