image of a device screen
A picture taken of what you see on a phone, computer, or other screen.
Brugsmønster:
to take a screenshot of [something]
Typisk fejl:
Learners often say *do a screenshot* instead of the more natural *take a screenshot*. They may also forget that *screenshot* is countable, so you should say *a screenshot*, *one screenshot*, *two screenshots*, not just *screenshot* without an article or number.
Synonymer
screen capture (More technical-sounding; often used in software and documentation but means the same thing.)

Typisk fejl:
Learners sometimes only know the noun and say *take a screenshot of it* even when a shorter verb form is natural, as in *screenshot it*. There is also confusion about the past tense: both *screenshot* and *screenshotted* are used in real life; many speakers prefer *screenshotted* (e.g. *She screenshotted our conversation*), but style guides vary.
Synonymer
capture (the screen) (Often used with an object like *the screen* or *the window*; slightly more technical or formal.)
