Today’s word of the day is: Concatenate meaning
Concatenate
Concatenate is a formal word that means “to link together in a series or chain.”
Pronunciation: [MEET-kyoot]
Concatenate is a fancy word for a simple thing: it means “to link together in a series or chain.” It’s Latin in origin, formed from a word combining con-, meaning “with” or “together,” and catena, meaning “chain. ” (The word chain is also linked directly to catena.) Concatenate can also function in English as an adjective meaning “linked together,” as in “concatenate strings of characters,” but it’s rare beyond technology contexts.
Example: Most household garbage bags are concatenated on rolls and connected at their perforated edges for easy tearing.
