Wang Geng explained that "login" means "registration", and "login" means "landing on land" or "metaphorically referring to goods entering a certain market". Therefore, the behavior of filling in usernames and passwords on routers, websites, and apps can only be referred to as "login". If "login" appears, it is an non-standard usage.

The 7th edition of the Modern Chinese Dictionary provides an explanation of "login" and "login".

2. "Later" or "Later"?

Many netizens have pointed out that it is common to see a mix of "please wait" and "please wait" on online platforms.

Wang Geng explained that there is a significant difference in the meanings of "later" and "wait a moment". "Later" is included in the Modern Chinese Dictionary and is defined as "time slightly later". "Wait a moment" is a phrase that means "wait a little longer". The sentence "please wait" is not complete and must be followed by a verb or verb phrase, such as "please call me later" or "please go to the office later". And "please wait a moment" can be simply said, meaning "please wait a little longer". "Please try again later" and "Please try again later" both have slightly different meanings.

"Please wait" and "Please wait" used on the Internet platform.

Some netizens have mentioned that in recent years, many people have been influenced by "Baidu Tieba" and have written "posting" on the internet as "posting". Is the usage of "Baidu Tieba" correct?

Wang Geng explained that the word "post" was added to the 6th edition of Modern Chinese Dictionary, which means "post on the Internet", so "post" and "post" are standard usage. The 7th edition of the Modern Chinese Dictionary has added the term "Tieba", which means "a network communication platform provided by a website. It is divided into many sections according to different themes, where users can read, communicate, or express their opinions." Therefore, the usage of "Baidu Tieba" is correct. From the perspective of vocabulary structure, there are many "name+bar" type place words, such as "internet cafes, bars, pottery bars, book bars, water bars", etc., but there are also "action+bar" type place words, such as "chat bar, search bar, barbecue bar, nostalgia bar", etc. Therefore, emphasizing the action of "pasting posts" is not special and conforms to the rules of Chinese word creation.

"Reservation" and "reservation" are also words that are easily confused in people's daily lives.

Wang Geng explained that in the 7th edition of the Modern Chinese Dictionary, "reservation" means predetermined or agreed upon, such as a predetermined plan or time. "Booking" means pre ordering, such as booking newspapers, booking banquets, etc. Wang Geng explained that according to the 7th edition of the Modern Chinese Dictionary, there is a clear difference between "reservation" and "reservation". "Reservation" refers to a predetermined, agreed upon, or determined term that has a wide range of uses and can be used for time, planning, planning, goals, etc. "Booking" means "ordering", "booking", and "subscribing", which involves money transactions. Hotels, banquets, train tickets, air tickets, newspapers, and other items can all be "booked".

In daily life, people often mention "vehicle turning", but many people cannot distinguish whether it should be "turning" or "turning". According to the 7th edition of the Modern Chinese Dictionary, "turning around" can refer to turning back or turning in the opposite direction, such as when the hutong is too narrow and the car cannot turn over. The 7th edition of the Modern Chinese Dictionary also clearly states that "turning around" refers to turning in the opposite direction, also known as "turning around".

Wang Geng explained that according to the 7th edition of the Modern Chinese Dictionary, both "U-turns" and "U-turns" are standardized usage. Due to the use of "turn around" in the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China, it is best for road traffic signs to be consistent with the law and uniformly use "turn around". There is no need for mandatory regulations in other fields, except for the best use of "turn around" in road traffic signs.

On the evening of June 1st, the US Senate passed a bill on the federal government's debt ceiling and budget, and the flame of the US debt bomb was temporarily extinguished at the last moment. The two parties in the United States have staged an extreme tug of war over the US debt bomb. Some experts believe that the US debt crisis is the result of the reckless politics promoted by the US dollar hegemony, and the underlying cause of this crisis is the highly polarized political system of the US. Since the end of World War II, the US Congress has adjusted the debt ceiling more than a hundred times. The recurring debt crisis will not only have a catastrophic impact on the US economy and people's livelihoods, but also continuously erode the value of US dollar assets such as government credit and US bonds, bringing significant and far-reaching impacts to the global economic landscape. 【
