loading
Filling a truck
Loading is the process of putting cargo, data, or material into something that will carry or process it: loading the truck, loading the dishwasher, the game is still loading.
A loading dock or loading zone is where vehicles receive cargo.
In computing, loading refers to transferring data into memory or displaying content: page loading.
Loading can also mean adding weight or bias to something: dice loading, front-loading a contract with fees.
