No, we don't. When people use words you don't understand to ask and answer their own questions, the solution is simple - say that you are a newbie and ask your question in your words. Just ask additional questions when you don't understand something. Politely, and not like "you nerds, nothing works, help me asap".
EDIT: Who downvoted this? People really expect others to specifically limit their speech to what a random lurker can understand? And think that using words they don't understand for interactions not involving them makes a community toxic?
