[Academic] What makes effective technobabble? (18+, non-technical background)
You will be presented with 5 words and 5 sentences. Some of the words/sentences will be real technical jargon, but some will be made up technical jargon, or "technobabble." Guess which is which!
Technobabble refers to fake technical jargon. For example, Star Trek uses this type of language heavily when they talk about "warp drives" or how to "generate a subspace tensor matrix in the twenty five to thirty thousand Cochrane range." I want to discover what constitutes effective technobabble, or technobabble that sounds real.
