What Does Jetlag Mean?

Let me dumb it down to a situation, since the others have already gotten the literal definition. For example, you took a flight from New York to California at around 7:00 pm. You arrive in California 4 hours later, so you feel as if it is 11:00 pm, but really, In California it is only 8:00 pm. The feeling of sleep and not being able to keep up with time is jet-lag.

It refers to the two areas the difference between local time.

Jet lag is a physiological condition which is a consequence of alterations to circadian rhythms.

It means when someone flies in a jet plane to a different time zone, it takes them awhile to catch up to the change. The is called a lag.

It's like when you're on a plane off to a different country or someplace else where it'll take a while to get to, the time zone is different so you get tired because (example) it's morning there when it's night at your original place.

It's when your body tells you,It's one time,and when the clock tells you it's another.Due to flying through different time zones

When you cant really walk staright in a way cause you got off a plane and your just used to flying it is a condition

Jetlag is caused when you fly nonstop or have a very long journey through flight.
