Used as a generic verb in popular contexts, Photoshop is often written as a lowercase photoshop (cf. google for “to search online” ).How is photoshopped pronounced?[ foh-toh-shopd ]What are some other forms of photoshopped?PhotoshoppedWhat are some other words related to photoshopped?airbrushretouch
