Today’s “Word of the Day” is acclimatise and it is a verb meaning “adjust, adapt, attune, accommodate, get accustomed, get used (to new conditions)”.
Example Sentence: Just ask the founders of Zoom. Only two years ago, we were all thinking that it would take at least another decade before video-conferencing became an integral part of the way we work in organisations. Then along comes Covid and in three weeks we’re all happily Zooming… And now we’re more or less acclimatised or, at any rate, resigned (accepted with unease) to the idea that remote meetings might be here to stay.
This word is present in The Guardian article Memo to corporate leaders post-Covid: the disruption to businesses has only just begun and click here to read it.
