The allure of a common language
from Crafting Solutions to Conflict · host Jane Beddall
Similar ideas expressed differently across groups/identities/fields of interest. Words that are familiar and well-understood within a group. That common language. Shorthand. Lingo. Jargon, even. Why do we do it? It saves time, that precious commodity. It can be a signifier: I understand the language of this group. And it reinforces our connection to each other within the group: this is the way that we talk.Do you have comments or suggestions about a topic or guest?
