Pronunciation: //ˈmɛnʃən//
noun
- (Internet, plural only) A social media feed, a list of replies or posts mentioning a person.""I would like Twitter to put some kind of filters in place," suggests Prakash. "At present I can't see troll tweets if I block the user, but others who go into my 'mentions' can do so, and read the graphic abuse, which is disturbing.""
verb
- (philosophy, linguistics) To utter a word or expression in order to refer to the expression itself, as opposed to its usual referent."I can illustrate this by mentioning the word lead.
