Office supplies: that surrounds us in the office

Many of us have a passion for buying notebooks, pens, markers and can spend hours choosing new accessories for the job. Shops with our favorite stationery called stationery or office supplies shops. Look closely at the picture. How many objects you can call in English, not peeping in the dictionary? Half? More? Well, not bad. But these are the words of our daily environment, so I propose to review them.

My attention was caught by the name of a large paper clips — Bulldog clip. Nothing to do with the breed of dog that word does not have. The subject has received its name in honor of a registered trademark, which started producing such clips in 1944 in the UK.

Also drew attention to the video, which collected a lot of useful words on the subject. Do not just look and write down the words themselves, who were strangers. So more likely you are to remember them.

The more we use in the office? During meetings and conferences using different equipment and machinery. Let’s examine these concepts:

Things in the office
Word	Translation	Picture
Computer	PC
Laptop	A laptop
Telephone	Phone
Fax machine	Fax machines
Calculator	Calculator
Printer	Printer
Projector	Projector
Remote control	Remote control
Screen	Shield
Loudspeakers	Columns
Microphone	Microphone
Laser pointer	Laser pointer
Flip chart	Lecture notes
Clipboard	The tablet with paper clips
White board	Whiteboard
Marker	Marker
Highlighter	Marker text highlighter

And in the end, as always, I suggest you test that will show how well you remember the words of the article.
