    Well it's hard to consider every "minority" in a guide. You have to start somewhere and you have to make some assumptions on what terms people might know. Else you will start explaining things like MP, HP and stuff. That might not be the goal of the guide you're about to write.
    Plus, the people writing those guides usually are experienced players. So it's their daily vocabulary and they may just not notice, that others are not as familiar with those terms.

    i think it's ok to assume some level of knowledge on the terms in a guide. And i also don't think, that DamianFatale was too lazy to learn the basic vocabulary He did ask the question here, so he put in the necessary effort.
