The Word "Cool"

The word “cool” means positive astonishment. I use the word “cool” to express my surprise towards new features on technology. For example, when the feature of voice recognition came out on a phone, I expressed myself and said, “This is so cool,” because I realized that the phone can perform tasks by using just my voice, and to me this was a joyful surprise. Furthermore, when I discovered a new feature in a car, such as a rear-view camera, I was so surprised that I said, “Cool, you are able to see the road when reversing!” Also, when I realized that my computer asks for a fingerprint as a password, I said, “Wow that is such a cool feature.”  For these reasons to me the word “cool” means positive astonishment, is a way to express how I feel towards new features on technology.
