Uptick

Uptick was especially popularized during the Covid era and essentially means an increase in number of a particular statistic or measure. It is often accompanied or by a graph or visual representation of the reported increase. The media, in particular, seem to be fond of using this term.

During the second wave of the pandemic there was an uptick in the number Covid cases being reported.

uptempo

The loudest music genre to have ever been made, a subgenre of hardcore, which mixes hardstyle with hardcore and adds a higher tempo (170+ bpm)

I listened to uptempo at the gym yesterday and hit a PR and promptly pissed my pants right after.
