load

verb B2 Neutral

Meaning

To load means to put a heavy or bulky item onto a vehicle, container, or other surface, or to transfer data into a system or device.
💡 A common mistake is using "loaded" as a past participle without the auxiliary verb "have" (e.g., "I have loaded the file" instead of "I loaded the file").
