A: Jargon contains terminology.

Terminology is vocabulary or set of terms/ words relating to a specific field (medical terminology, legal terminology).

Jargon is speech, used by a profession (police jargon) or is specific to a certain group (a religious group can speak in their own jargon)

So a language teacher using terminology (vocabulary) of linguistics or pedagogy might be speaking in ‘teachers jargon’ or his speech might be full of teaching jargon.

Sometimes they can be used interchangeably but generally ‘terminology’ being the vocabulary itself is more of a neutral expression while jargon refers more to how someone speaks or writes and so it can have negative connotation.

A: @Asg2 'Terminology' describes the words used for a particular subject.

For example: phloem and xylem are botanical terminology.

'Jargon' is similar but it has a negative meaning. These words are also used about a particular subject but they seem to exclude outsiders and may be unnecessary. These words may be trendy or made-up.

For example: I only asked what computer he used but he just babbled a load of jargon I couldn't understand.

A: "Terminology" means the technical words that describe what your are trying to say.

"Jargon" includes abbreviations that are used in your field that have no real meaning outside of the group of people that work in the industry. For instance "CIC" means Cover Glass Interconnected Cell in the solar cell industry. "CIC" wouldn't have any meaning to anyone outside that industry.

A: Yes, that is certainly an example of constructive dismissal.

Constructive dismissal is a situation where the employee is forced to leave or quit his/her job not because they want to, but because of the employer’s conduct. The resignation could be the result of bad working conditions or changes in terms of employment which leaves the employee with no other choice but to quit.

A: Terminology

A: Arcane terminology and abstruse vocabulary were all intentionally squeezed into one complex sentence to hide away the underlying facts and make the matter as ambiguous as possible.

I would use obscure instead of abstruse and conceal instead of hide away but otherwise this is good.

A: × I want to ask if this is an appropriate terminology for the game industry.
✓ I want to ask if this is appropriate terminology used in the game industry.

× If you earn money/coins in-game, I always say it as "in-game resources"
✓ when you earn money/coins in-game, I always say it as "in-game resources"

× or do you have any other recommendations?
✓ or do you have any other recommendations on what I should call it?

It’s more natural to say “in-game currency” or just say the name of the currency ie: “v-bucks, robux, star coins”

A: I’m a bit confused by the word “expressions” here. What do you mean by that?

Otherwise, “We will develop a new terminology list where you can see expressions that are allowed by the company, and those that are not” is a bit smoother.

If I were to rewrite the whole thing, I might say something like “We will develop a new list of terminology where employees will be informed which expression are allowed by the company, and which expressions are not”

Hope this helps!

A: I don’t really get what you’re trying to say, sorry😔
But, if you’re trying to explain the meaning of menopause you should just say the definition

A: I will try to accustomize myself to the required terminology used in the projects.
