social entrepreneurship Jargon Glossary

...courtesy of the Skoll World Forum 2009
jargon i'm hearing / seeing on twitter, and my best guess at what these terms mean.
i'm of the opinion that we won't really succeed from inventing new and complex terms, but i do like some of these.

1. ethonomics - a true neologism (just wanted to sound smart and say "neologism").
   
2. change agent - VERY popular term; seems to describe everyone from social entrepreneurs to people who like to hang around entrepreneurs. seems to best apply to people who would have a hard time describing their "job" in less than 30 minutes.
   
3. spontaneous community - nice way of saying slum (thanks to Jeff Chu)
   
4. gastropolitical awakening - using food to bring people in conflict together, catalyze change
5. interconnected prosperity - "Hope, joy, empathy, community." (Jeff Chu again)
6. primary constitutents - instead of "beneficiaries" or "clients". oh boy.

And in the "no idea what this means" category:

1. strategic apex
   
2. disconnected ambiguity

No offense intended! Just like to shine a light from time to time on the interesting gap between the words social entrepreneurs use (things like "I'm running out of money") and the words the wider world of thinkers and supporters use. I love language and all it can do, but not so sure about the erupting lexicon coming from the direction of the Western-world social entrepreneurship elite...
