Can you think of brand names that have become verbs? A phrase that we probably use daily is "I'll google it" A few more would be "Just uber it to the venue" "Can you dunzo your clothes" "I'm going to photoshop this picture of mine" Which other brands have become part of your daily lingo?

Not exactly brands but AirPods, iPads have done it somewhat.

Growing up I’ve heard Surf more frequently than detergent

Also β€˜PayTM karo’ has done well
