Answer

I'm going to plug in my earphones/headphones.

Answer

Hey  Robin!

Saying "I am going to plug in my headphones" is perfect!

Also, it is usually "headphones" (you generally put the "s" on it even if it is one pair for one person). You could also say "earbuds," but "headphones" is more common.

Some people say "headphones" when referring to those with the band over the top, ans "earbuds" for those that go in your ears.
