فعل B1 action
1

make data or devices match

to make two or more devices or sets of data the same, or make them work together at the same time

الگوی کاربرد: to sync [device/data] with [device/service]
اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes say *"make it sync"* when a simple verb is enough, as in *"sync it"*. Another common mistake is using the wrong preposition: it is most natural to say *"sync [something] with [something]"*, not *"sync [something] to"* in many contexts (though *"sync to"* appears in some technical instructions). Some learners also confuse the spelling with *"sink"*, which is a different word with a different pronunciation.

فعل B2 state
2

be or become synchronized

to be or become in the same time or state as something else, especially sound, video, or data

الگوی کاربرد: [something] syncs (with [something])
اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes add an unnecessary object and say *"sync it"* when the verb is intransitive, as in *"The audio does not sync"*, not *"The audio does not sync it"*. Another confusion is using *"is sync"* instead of *"is in sync"*; for the state, English normally requires the phrase *"in sync"*.
هم‌معنی‌ها
match (More general; can be used for many kinds of similarity, not only timing or data.) | line up (Informal; suggests things happening at the same time or in the same order.)
متضادها
clash (Emphasizes that times, sounds, or actions do not fit well together.)

اسم B2 state
3

process or state of synchronization

the action or state of making things the same in time or information, especially for computers or sound and picture

الگوی کاربرد: a [full/quick] sync; in/out of sync
اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes say *"make a sync"* instead of natural phrases like *"do a sync"* or *"run a sync"*. Another mistake is dropping *"of"* in the fixed phrases *"in sync"* and *"out of sync"*; correct forms are *"The audio is in sync"* and *"The audio is out of sync"*, not *"The audio is sync"* or *"out sync"*.
هم‌معنی‌ها
synchronization (Longer, more formal word; often used in technical writing.)
متضادها

اسم informal B2 event
4

short meeting to update

a short, informal meeting where people tell each other news about their work and plan together

الگوی کاربرد: a sync with [someone/team]
اشتباه رایج:
Learners may incorrectly treat *sync* here as a verb and say *"We will sync"* when they mean the meeting itself; more natural is *"We will have a sync"* for the noun. Also, this use is mostly common in modern office and tech-company English; in other settings, words like *meeting* or *check-in* may sound more natural.
هم‌معنی‌ها
check-in (Very similar meaning; slightly more general and common in many workplaces.) | catch-up (Informal; focuses on talking about what has happened recently.)
متضادها
silence (Highlights the absence of communication or updates within a team.)

music licensing for visual media

in the music and film business, a deal or payment for using a song together with a video, movie, or advertisement

الگوی کاربرد: a sync for [show/ad]; land a sync
اشتباه رایج:
Learners may assume this meaning is general because they know the basic word *sync*, but this use is special industry vocabulary. Outside music and media business contexts, people may not understand *sync* with this meaning.
هم‌معنی‌ها
synchronization license (More formal, full term used in legal and industry contexts.)
متضادها
unlicensed use (Describes using music in visual media without a legal synchronization agreement.)
