Day 36

Now a lot of us spend a lot of time on the internet and on social media sites so it's good to know some vocabulary that you can use to talk about your online activities in English. 

Let's start with the internet which is a noun also sometimes called the net, the web or cyberspace although the internet is most common.

When we use the internet, we use the verb connect.

 You can also go online which means the same thing. In this case, online is an adverb which modifies the verb go but online can also be an adjective as in:

I'm online right now.
