Hello,
I recently went to a shopping website that offered a product. And this product would require a TF extension card which is not included in the purchase.

I would like to know what the TF mention refers to, and where I can get one?

Thank you in advance!
Have a good evening/day.

Well, after doing some research on my part, the TF extension card refers to a TransFlash card (in English), which is the technical term for SD, originating from SanDisk, a reference brand in card storage, micro card, etc., for mobiles, cameras, camcorders, and others. It seems to have taken over (in the same way that hoover refers to any vacuum cleaning device, although it was originally a registered trademark. If I'm not mistaken, fridge too... I’ll check that!)

A TF extension card is therefore a card (micro SD, mini SD, SD) that allows for expanding the storage capacity of a device such as a smartphone.

Thanks to the CCM community for their help ;)

For the curious, I didn't find anything about Aspirateur, but Frigidaire is indeed a registered trademark that we often use as a general name when referring to the refrigerator (we also use Frigo, at least where I live, but I believe it spreads further).

However, even if the name isn't American, the appliance was created in America, and it has become the generalized term in France, Quebec, and New Brunswick!

That was a small aside for the curious like me, and to clear up any doubts about what I wrote in my other comment!

Have a great day!

(and sorry for the monologue...!)

hoover in English;
vacuum cleaner invented by Mr. Hoover
the word hoover was a registered trademark but not the vacuum cleaner
