Neek

Neek

Le terme Neek provient d'une contraction de deux termes distincts, à savoir Nerd (prononcer Neurde) et Geek (/gik/, prononciation anglaise /giːk/), soit en anglais "A cross between a Nerd and a Geek."[1].

Les termes Nerd et Geek sont synonymes, toutefois :

  • Nerd appuie l'idée de connaissances certaines en un domaine défini, ici l'informatique,
  • Geek souligne l'aspect "passionné" de la personne, le plus souvent aussi dans le domaine de l'informatique.

Or, "Nerd" a une connotation plus péjorative car le terme Nerd désigne une personne "introvertie", "solitaire".
