USB _________ (fill in the blank)

[Martin L]

euwhm.... is just USB also good? most of the time people here in NL ask if i have my usb with me, and the other way around too ofcourse, and if they/i mean a usb whatever you can call it, yes they do

[DL.]

In English I call it “USB flash drive”. In Swedish it’s always just a direct translation of “USB memory”, which is what it’s called in computer magazines and among techies.

Many people here call it (in Swedish) “USB memory stick”, “memory stick”, “USB stick” or simply “the stick” (on the subject of portable data storage, “put it on the stick”). In rare cases it’s called “USB memory card”, because it’s put in the same category as other memory cards in online stores.

"Thumb Drive" here. At least to me, its shape resembles more a thumb than a pen.

Well... At least I'm not the only one that calls it a Thumb Drive.

[sk8er_boi]

i call them "flash bellek" in turkish. which means flash memory.

[lingk]

I call them either usb-keys or thumb drives, just depends on how i'm feeling that day but most of the time i find my self calling it a thumb drive.

Welllllll.... I guess those are very literal interpretations of the names. Very good work finding those.

Yep, the "Thumb Drive" really cracks me up.... I wish I had one of those.

Ha! What do those look like?

I call it a laptop even though I never put it on my lap. Most people I know call them laptops. The computer companies often call them notebooks. I think they should be called portable computers, but who wants to say all that instead of just laptop?

I learned that the hard way. Thing is I fried the computer, too, because I tried to take it with water.
