English term or phrase: sideloading
Definition from Wikipedia:
Sideloading is a term used in Internet culture, similar to "upload" and "download", but in reference to the process of transferring data between two local devices, in particular between a computer and a mobile device such as a cellphone, smartphone, PDA, or portable media player. Sideloading typically refers to media file transfer to a mobile device via USB, Bluetooth or by writing directly to a memory card for insertion into the mobile device.

Example sentence(s):
  • In theory, sideloading - transfering games to a phone from a PC as opposed downloading them over the air - allows consumers to buy games with large file sizes through D2C channels without having to worry about data charges. Intent Media
  • The sideloading of entertainment services and content elevates the significance of a unified fixed and mobile portal — this becomes the iTunes-like store from which end users purchase services and content downloaded to their PC and then sideloaded to the handset. Penton Media, Inc.
  • Personally, sideloading podcasts to my phone has been one of my favourite pc to mobile related tasks this year and since I got a N91, it seems I’m going to keep doing this for a while. Rudy De Waele

Explanation:
No és un terme excessivament comú, encara.

D'altra banda, el DIEC ja té definició específica pel terme "baixar", "download", referida als aparells informàtics. El terme "pujar", "upload", encara no està inclòs al diccionari, semblantment a "traspassar", "sideload".


A banda d'això, val la pena proposar els següents termes per a un registre més formal -considero que els termes que s'empren normalment, com "baixada de fitxers", etc, pertanyen a un registre informal. Els termes proposats serien, respectivament, "descàrrega", "càrrega" i "tràfega", del verb "trafegar", sinònim (culturalment no marcat) de "trasvassar". Es pot considerar la última opció com un cas de reutilització lingüística, justificat per un procés de metaforització del terme.
