Jargon and Slang



When we find ourselves talking with the group of people that belong to our work we are referring to Jargon, Jargon is formal and the words are known by all the members of this group. An example of this would be used in Medicine, doctors use Jargon to communicate topics about their work.



When we talk about Slang, we are referring to the one used also by a group but a group of persons who communicate in a informal way, this may be related to the age of the people that are communicating with slang or the social class.
