Hi, I remember once learning the word “depress” in third grade in my advanced class as in “to depress a button”. I’ve only ever heard “press a button”, does anyone still use “depress” in the context of to press down on?

You can press, depress, re-press, unpress, and compress. Are they all different, are they the same? Hard to say but if you ever write a manual or procedure try to pick one and stick with it.
