Definition
The specialized jargon and complex language used by economists that often confuses ordinary people.
Etymology
Blend of 'economy' and the suffix '-ese' (as in 'journalese' or 'legalese'), which denotes the distinctive language of a particular profession or group.
Kelly Says
When economists say 'negative growth' instead of 'recession,' they're speaking economese—using technical terms to make bad news sound more abstract and less emotionally alarming to the public.
