  • I've never hear of 'onload' - Is this a colloquialism? 'Load up the truck' (or just load) is more commonplace surely? Surely 'onload' sounds so much like 'unload' it should be avoided ?

  • Onload is a word, but its definition equates it with load. I'm used to hearing onboard, but I had to look up onload as it was something I hadn't heard before. Google Books NGram Viewer shows no functional hits for onload the truck. What is your actual question?
