Pronunciation
- (Southern-England) audio
Meanings
-
A live audiovisual telecommunication; a phone call with video; a video chat.
Research is already suggesting that people find video calls "exhausting", because the unavoidable technological delay in a conversation is unsettling. You can't judge facial expressions, body language and responses as accurately when they are not instantaneous, even if you don't consciously realise it.
