The word swiped: The grocery store I go to just put in touchless payment for checking out. It has the word 'Swipe' in a large font on its front. The cashier is older than me, so I asked him "Remember when 'swiped' meant to steal something"? He laughed, but the young customers and the bagger just glared at us. #AmericanEnglish #Language
