(Newswire.net — February 20, 2014) Chicago, Illinois — Do you have words or phrases that are particular to your business or profession?

According to dictionary.com Jargon is defined as:

 

   –  Language, especially the vocabulary, peculiar to a particular trade, profession or group    

   –  Unintelligible or meaningless talk or writing; gibberish

   –  Any talk or writing that one does not understand

   –  Language that is characterized by uncommon or pretentious vocabulary and convoluted syntax and is often vague in meaning.

 

Words don’t sound like Jargon when.

 

The word is integrated into your heart and mind. It is naturally yours and communicated to other people on many levels. An example of that is how body language defines who are. It is understood directly by others just as a smile is understood in all languages.
