Greșeală frecventă:
Learners often confuse "reset" with "restart." "Restart" usually means turning something off and on again, while "reset" means returning it to its original or default state, which can erase settings or data. Learners also sometimes say "reset back" (e.g., *reset it back to default*), but "reset to default" is usually enough.
Sens
Return something to default state

Sinonime
restore (Often implies bringing something back to a previous or default condition, but can sound more formal and is not limited to devices.)

reboot (Common in computing when you turn a device off and on again; may not always include clearing settings like a full reset can.)
Antonime
customize (Means to change something away from its default state to suit personal needs, which is the opposite of returning it to default.)
