1. (capitalized, rare, sometimes)A person who uses a great deal of jargon when speaking or writing, especially one who seems to relish such a manner of expression.

   “‘How excellent a thing is sleep,’ sighed Sancho Panza; ‘it wraps a man round like a cloak’—an excellent example, by the way, of how to say a thing concretely: a Jargoneer would have said that ‘among the beneficent qualities of sleep its capacity for withdrawing the human consciousness from the contemplation of immediate circumstances may perhaps be accounted not the least remarkable.’ How vile a thing—shall we say?—is the abstract noun!”

   “A friend of mine had a slight skin rash she couldn't identify, so she went to a real Jargoneer. He scowled at the rash, went "Hmmm" several times, then made a couple of sorties into his lab. . . . Finally he came back and informed her impressively that she was suffering from an Indeterminate Dermatitis.”

   “Miss Marincola, a Barthes-Benjamin devotee too, and a relentless jargoneer, also clues us into the fact that the "esthetic vocabulary" of the photographer was developed by the "mass media ‘image’ in its various permutations as a paradigm of reality."”

   “Partnering, along with its less irritating cousin "partnership", crops up all over the place, being equally useful to the lazy jargoneer and the lazy policy-maker. It has been said that there is no noun which cannot be verbed; in the same way, there is now nothing, concrete or abstract, which cannot be partnered.”
