Underlight is an enforced roleplaying game, which means that players are not allowed to talk about real life matters while playing. In addition, there are a lot of terms used in game to explain out of character things. You may want to alarm your fellow players of something real life affecting your gameplay, and it is then preferred to use a game term in order to give your character a reason to act this way. There are many examples of this, and getting familiar with them, and using them, makes for a better in game feeling and helps maintain the illusion.
