You can think of tech as just a short, everyday way of saying 'technology' — the machines, computers, and electronic around us, especially the newest ones. It is the same idea as technology, only spoken in a quicker, more casual voice.

可以想成 technology（科技）的口語簡稱：指我們身邊的機器、電腦和各種電子裝置，尤其是新出的那些。它和 technology 是同一個概念，只是說起來更短、更隨意，像朋友聊天時順口講的「3C、科技這些東西」。

From the word’s history

Tech is simply a clipped form of 'technology' (ultimately from Greek 'tekhnē', skill or craft). Cutting the long word down to one syllable is what gives it its casual, conversational feel.

tech 就是把 technology 砍短後留下的口語形式（technology 再上溯到希臘字 tekhnē，意為技藝、手藝）。把長字縮成一個音節，正是它聽起來輕鬆、口語的原因。
