I use my own vocabulary too. If you can't figure it out, it's because I'm very, very educated.

All kidding aside, using standardized lingo does help all participate and easily understand the conversation. I've considered "root" to be akin to having "root access" as an administrator level access in a linux or windows environment. "reprogram" to me means to program the device with a different set of instructions to perform a different action or the same actions in a different way. It has little do with access rights, such as is core to the term "root." By gaining root to our devices, or rooting it, we have admin level access. There, we can reprogram. Rooting is step one and allows you do much more to the device than just reprogram it.
