Do You Hoover or Do You Vacuum-Clean?
Do you ever catch yourself saying “hoover” when you actually mean to vacuum-clean? π€
Or reaching for ‘Domestos‘ instead of plain bleach?
It happens more than we realise!
Brands sneak into our everyday language, becoming part of our vocabulary.
You need a plaster? Do you ask for a Band-Aid?
Thirsty for a fizzy drink? You might merely ask for a Coke.
It’s interesting how brand names take over the actual product names without us noticing, isn’t it?
They’re everywhere!
So, while you’re ‘hoovering’ or grabbing ‘Domestos’, take a sec to think about the sneaky power of branding!
What other brand names have become part of your daily talk? π
