Mock up Meaning in English
expression
释义
A 'mock up' is a simple model or sample made to show what something will look like before it is finalized. It is often used in design, engineering, or advertising to demonstrate ideas.
用法与细微差别
Usually used as a noun ('a mock up') or as a phrasal verb ('to mock up something'). Most common in design/creative fields. Not slang, but more specific than 'model'. A mock up is less detailed than a prototype and not for real use, just for visualizing ideas.
