Glitch
A glitch is a short-lived fault in a system. It is often used to describe a transient fault that corrects itself, and is therefore difficult to troubleshoot. The term is particularly common in the computing and electronics industries, and in circuit bending, as well as among players of video games, although it is applied to all types of systems including human organizations and nature.
==Etymology==
Some reference books, including ''Random House's American Slang'', claim that the term comes from the German word ''glitschen'' ("to slip") and the Yiddish word ''gletshn'' ("to slide or skid"). Either way it is a relatively new term, as on July 23, 1965, ''Time Magazine'' felt it necessary to define it in an article: "Glitches—a spaceman's word for irritating disturbances." In relation to the reference by ''Time Magazine'', the term has been believed to enter common usage during the American Space Race of the 1950s, where it was used to describe minor faults in the rocket hardware that were difficult to pinpoint.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Dictionary.com )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Online Etymology Dictionary )〕
