Ever felt lost in a sea of file extensions? .DOCX, .PDF, .JPG... it can be overwhelming! Understanding common file types is crucial for anyone navigating the digital world. Let's break it down:
* **Documents (.DOCX, .PDF, .TXT):** Think letters, reports, and ebooks. .DOCX is a Microsoft Word format, .PDF is for universal document viewing, and .TXT is plain text.
* **Images (.JPG, .PNG, .GIF):** These bring visuals to life! .JPG is great for photos, .PNG for images with transparency, and .GIF for animated clips.
* **Audio (.MP3, .WAV):** Your tunes and podcasts live here. .MP3 is compressed for smaller file sizes, while .WAV is uncompressed for higher quality.
* **Video (.MP4, .MOV):** Movies, shows, and everything in between. .MP4 is a widely compatible format, and .MOV is Apple's video format.
Knowing these basics empowers you to manage your files effectively and avoid frustrating format errors. Happy filing!
