Be cool to each other. We'll welcome most occult themes, it's okay if you stray from witchcraft a bit.
No advertising. No trolling. No hate. Violaters will be removed unceremoniously.

Considering that's not the term they use, it would not be very effective. They would know you're lying.
Or you were so bad of a practitioner that you didn't even bother to learn what it was called
Since you didn't actually provide a good response, it's called disfellowshipped.
Still won't work. It's just not worth trying to remember it, and thus not worth mentioning the term.
It's more nuanced than that. You can't be disfellowshipped unless you were baptized as a JW, which you can tell if someone was or not. That's just not something you can easily lie about. At best you can say you were "disassociated", but that's not worth that either.
You're better off just saying "put me on your do not call list" than trying to come up with a lie like that.
It's actually dishonorably dismounted.
Thank you!!!! I just need to figure out their term in Portuguese now and I'll be golden here in Brazil and when I finally move in with my BFs in the USA

Ad an organization that's all about missionary work, they predictably very good with having a translation for everything to every language.
e.g. https://www.jw.org/en/library/magazines/w20150415/disfellowshipping-a-loving-provision/
Thank you very much!!! That is incredibly helpful!! Now I'm actually excited for the next time they come knocking! Shame I didn't know this last sunday when they passed by my house, but now I know!!
Thx!
