The verb "to skype" means "to video chat with someone" to many many people, in the same way "to google" means to look something up online.
I don't even use skype, yet I say "I skyped my grandma on Sunday" and similar, using any number of other apps. It'll be a hard habit to break.
- shermantanktop 2y agoI suggest continuing to use it. Your language habits are not the property of marketers and product managers. Now someday nobody will recognize the name and your meaning will no longer be clear. But until then Skype away, and use bandaids and Kleenex while you do it.
