Slang & Jargon

When we communicate, we used to use words depending on the context. For example when doctors talk each others, they use a language that barely a common person will understand, or when people from a particular social group communicate, they use an specific type of language (words) that they understand.

The specific language used in things related to work is known as Jargon. . Those words are formals and have a great importance to develop in a good way things like the jobs. They are many types of Jargon, as:

• Sport language: codes, specific words related, etc.
• Scientific language: for example; ABG, in medicine, means arterial blood gas reading.
• Legal language: used by lawyers, in the court, in legal processes, etc.

There are also informal words, that are used by group of people (social groups), known as slang. Slang is commonly used in chats, secret conversations (codes), etc. For example the word "cool", that means great.
