Jargon; pg. 354
"Jargon has been used to refer to the technical language of a professional subgroup, such as doctors and lawyers. Jargon is the vocabulary that communicates the distinctions and specific meanings these professionals need to reference" (Jandt, pg. 354). There are a wide variety of shows out there that portray lots of professional speaking. One example is in Charlie's Angels, the one with Cameron Diaz, Lucy Liu, and Drew Barrymore. In the second movie, there is a small scene where the Angel's knew what they were trying to identify and they end up knowing what is going to happen next. Unfortunately I cannot find a clip for that scene that demonstrates it. The scene in question is when they go to the house of a dead man and the Angel's look around for clues using many various things and objects mostly seen in Crime Scene Investigations. The picture of the Angel's shows one clip of the movie, but is not the main scene I mentioned. It is just there as a visual. Last point, I will lead you off with a clip from Grey's Anatomy and it will be a scene they are speaking their jargon. Enjoy!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsz-WrFVUQo
