 Terms for using the non-dictionary meaning of words 1) redefining the word altogether 2) having additional stipulations (stated or unstated) 3) having a custom definition that differs from the standard understanding or connotations for the word 4) the deliberate use of a word in a way that is different from standard or dictionary use in order to deceive others as to what one really means |
