noun


What does Tach really mean?

Tach is actually a shortened way to say tachometer, which is a fancy word for a little tool that measures the speed of something. Kind of like a speedometer in a car, it tells you how fast something is going. But instead of measuring the speed of a car, a tachometer measures how fast something like an engine or a motor is spinning.

Let's imagine you have a toy car with a little wheel that spins when you push it. Well, a tachometer can tell you just how fast that wheel is spinning. It counts the number of times the wheel goes around in a minute and gives you a number, like 1000, 2000, or even 5000. It's a bit like counting how many times you can jump rope in a minute - the more times you jump, the higher the number.

So when someone says "tach," they're usually talking about a tachometer and they're interested in knowing how fast something is spinning. It's kind of like being a detective, using this special tool to figure out the speed of something that's moving really fast.
