What is jargon used for?

Jargon consists of Words and technical terms that have a particular meaning within an occupation or scientific field. It may be slang or idioms, or common Words given a specific meaning.

Medical terminology includes jargon, as well as terms that have little application outside the study of medicine or anatomy.

Government agencies also usually create their own forms of jargon.
