record something on videotape
To use a video camera to make a recording of something on tape.
รูปแบบการใช้:
to videotape [something/someone]
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners sometimes say *"video"* as a verb in all situations (e.g., *"He videoed the game"*). While this is increasingly common, *"videotape"* traditionally focuses on recording onto tape and is often used in more formal or older contexts. Another mistake is adding an extra preposition, such as *"videotape about the concert"* instead of simply *"videotape the concert"*.
คำพ้องความหมาย
record (More general; can refer to audio, video, or data, not only tape-based video.)
คำตรงข้าม
erase (Means to remove or wipe out a recording instead of making one.)

รูปแบบการใช้:
a videotape of [something]
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners may use *"videotape"* to talk about any kind of video file (for example, an online clip). In modern English, *"video"* is usually used for general recordings, and *"videotape"* is best kept for older tape-based recordings.
คำพ้องความหมาย
video (More general; can be digital or tape and is the common modern term, while "videotape" suggests the older tape format.)
คำตรงข้าม
live broadcast (Refers to content shown as it happens, with no pre‑recorded videotape.)

magnetic tape for video recording
The long, thin tape inside a video cassette that holds the picture and sound.
รูปแบบการใช้:
rewind / damage / clean the videotape

คำพ้องความหมาย
video cassette (Refers mainly to the plastic case that holds the tape, while "videotape" is the actual tape, though in everyday speech the two are often used loosely.)
คำตรงข้าม
digital file (A non‑physical, computer‑based way to store video instead of on magnetic tape.)
