Question

converter She was so indifferent to television that she hadn't even bought a converter, and her old TV sat there useless until she finally lugged it down to the recycling center. kənˈvərtər

Accepted Answer

A device that changes something (such as radio signals, radio frequencies, or data) from one form to another. Converters come in many forms. Travelers to foreign countries who bring along their electric razors or hair dryers always pack a small electric converter, which can change direct current to alternating current or vice versa. In 2009 millions of Americans bought digital-analog converters, small box-shaped devices that change the new broadcast digital signal to the analog signal that older TV sets were made to receive. A catalytic converter is the pollution-control device attached to your car's exhaust system that converts pollutants such as carbon monoxide into harmless form.
