When you press a BUZZER you want to contact someone on intercom/mobile (give a signal) or want someone to let you in (or BUZZ you IN) or BUZZ the door open, BUZZ you through the gate, etc.
You may also GET A BUZZ e.g. from speed or extreme sports. If these fail some people walk to the nearest liquor store to get some BUZZ (you better think twice, though).
For more meanings of BUZZ you may turn to BUZZ LIGHTYEAR.
Hope he won't tell you to BUZZ OFF! ;)
buzzzzz....................
Funny story, wanted to tell you to write about this word. Popular word in the healthcare environment. E.g. "bed 5 is buzzing" or more likely "bloody buzzers!!! they were buzzing all night long" and... "when I'm at home I think I hear bloody buzzers...But I guess I'm hearing things".
OdpowiedzUsuńP.S. Hearing things/seeing things - It's a tricky one too.. E.g. the patient is seeing things (in meaning of hallucination).
That's interesting, i mean "seeing things" - and it's usually in the continuous form, isn't it?
