Typische Verben im Zusammenhang mit dem Computer sind 'benutzen', 'bedienen', 'starten', 'ausschalten' oder 'am Computer arbeiten'. Man sagt oft 'am Computer sitzen', um auszudrücken, dass man gerade an einem Gerät arbeitet. 3) Häufige Kontexte: Computer sind aus dem modernen Alltag nicht wegzudenken. Sie finden Verwendung im Büro (Büroarbeit, E-Mails), in der Schule (Recherche, Textverarbeitung) und zu Hause (Gaming, Streaming).
