first we're introduced to a situation with the frustrations of abreviations, how grammatical structure in America's english language by no means is what it originally intailed.  How "slag" or "sayings" have become missleading to the original message they're trying to convey. Mrs. Klass finds it interesting when people place sports terms into different situations, his exam medical situations. That a hit is considered a win or a success but rarely called that.

the specific language he writes about in the medical feild, he claims that it creates a speical atmosphere, a closeness that reassuring to people in this feild under stress. He was a medical student and he said he felt proud once he "Cracked the code" of how doctors spoke and wrote, which i thought was interesting perhaps a sense of being more so apart of the medical crowd, even closer to being a doctor if you figure the communication skills. 

He notes however when you're surrounded by a different language the majority of the day you try not to let these set of communcation skills change you. I thought that was a good point, that people sound keep in contact with the same basic level of language or else no one outside for example the hospital would have any comprehension of what you're trying to say. At the end of the piece he states that the most important part of medical jargon is to keep distance from patients. Becomming attached is not necessarily a good thing especially if he or she "boxed." The medical feild is a tolling job with alot of responsibilities and having almost a separate language is interesting becuase it in turn almost pulls you away from the situation a bit more creating distance between the patient and yourself.
