1 press release: A "press release" describes a statement or communication to the media, generally for announcing news of interest (a product launch, a change of management, etc.). Example: We sent out a press release informing the media of our impending bankruptcy. In this dialogue, Susie tells Jean that she is "typing a press release".
2 annoyed: To be "annoyed (with someone or something)" is to be irritated or frustrated by it. Example: I am annoyed by my colleagues' lack of rigor. In this dialogue, Susie describes the situation as "annoying", which implies that she is feeling "annoyed".
3 room: The noun "room" describes the "space" or "place" available for something. Example: There is no room in the apartment for another sofa. In this dialogue, Susie tells Jean that there is no "room" on her screen to have two documents open at the same time. Note that "a room" describes a space in a home or apartment, such as a bedroom or dining room.
4 screen: In a technical context, a "screen" describes a display or monitor, a flat or curved surface where an image is projected. Example: Bruno just bought the sales team new screens for their computers. In this dialogue, Susie complains about the size of her screen to Jean.
