[lojban-beginners] Jargon and Abbreviations

[Alex Rozenshteyn <rpglover64@gmail.com>]

I was just wondering a lot, and two thoughts came to mind that I wanted to ask the community.

1) How does lojban deal with jargon?  Mathematical jargon has been considered, but what about others?  In materials science, a "dislocation" means something completely different and only marginally related to what it means in medicine.  Do we just use the same word and rely on the fact that we're talking about people and not copper?

2) Is there a lojbanic solution to the fact that people really like to shorten long, frequently used phrases?  It's inherently ambiguous in the way that lojban doesn't like, right?
