Kids Encyclopedia Facts

A preview is like a sneak peek or a small sample of something bigger. It lets you see what the whole thing will be like before it's fully ready or available to everyone. Think of it as a little taste to get you excited!

What is a Preview?

A preview gives you an idea of what to expect. It's a short look at something new. This helps people decide if they want to see or use the full version later.

Previews in Movies and Games

When you hear about a preview, it often means a short video for a new movie or video game. These are also called trailers.

  • Movie trailers show exciting scenes from an upcoming film. They are designed to make you want to watch the whole movie when it comes out.
  • Video game previews often show gameplay or story clips. They let you see what the game looks like and how it plays. This helps gamers decide if they want to buy it.

These previews are a big part of how movies and games are advertised. They build excitement and interest before the official release date.

Previews in Software

In the world of computers and apps, a preview means something a bit different.

  • Print preview is a common feature in many programs. It lets you see exactly how a document will look when you print it. This way, you can check for mistakes or formatting issues before wasting paper and ink.
  • Website previews allow you to see how your content will appear online. If you are writing a blog post or designing a webpage, a preview shows you the final look. This helps you make sure everything is perfect before you publish it for others to see.
