Beat The
Jargon
Jargon buster is a
great tool for busting the jargon you may encounter in everyday
life. Our jargon buster will help you resolve all those tricky
words or phrases that fills our lives with added
complications.
A good jargon
buster should be easy to navigate and our jargon buster
is surely that and much more. Our jargon buster also allows you
to search directly for the word or phrase you are trying to
decipher utilising the Google search box in order to search our
jargon buster site.
Alternatively you scan simply
scroll through our jargon buster directory to locate
your word that needs busting for a more common sense
explanation to its meaning.
Some of our jargon
buster sections are very technical and niche market. Others
are relatively straight forward and common place. That’s what
is so amazing about jargon - it is everywhere. Jargon is also
getting worse and soon everyone will need easy access to a
jargon buster in order to understand the real meaning of the
English language which is a real shame.
Many of us often have to
struggle with jargon words and concepts that are used as though
they have one single and simple meaning, while in reality they
hide strong bias and very specific world views.
Not surprisingly, they are
usually biased towards the world views of those in power. There
have also been well-intentioned words and concepts when coined
but that have been corrupted over time through inappropriate
usage, thereby acquiring more complicated connotations and
implications.
When we use these jargon
words, we often unwillingly but unavoidably become trapped in
political and philosophical frameworks which block our ability
to challenge the power that backs those views.
The Jargon Buster Directory is your
central resource for locating an explanation to typical terms
found for within all industries , professions and
governments.
Use our directory to locate and decipher jargon that you
would like an explanation for.
Keeping our directory up to date and to include all the
spheres where jargon is used is a never ending task for us. We
have started with what we can locate but but it is a vast
subject and can be very niche specific.
Are you in a profession or industry that uses jargon that is
NOT included here? Then why not send us your own jargon buster
text and we will include it within our database. To say thank
you we will provide you with a return link back to your web
site. Click in the 'contact us' menu bar on the left.
