AC means Alternating Current, electrical current that periodically reverses direction, and DC means Direct Current, a current that continuously flows in one direction. AC/DC on a socket means it can take both types of power.

So see, power intake is a spectrum… some devices are born AC, some DC. Some devices however go both ways. It’s natural. However some organizations like the IEC want to force their narrow world view on everyone.

DC is just AC with f=0.

There were many rumours about the singer of AC/DC was bisexual because of all that (that the name came from it IIRC), he has debunked it numerous times.
