i.e. intentionally use definitions you know are confusing and then - as language is famously a single person endeavour - blaming the listener when they misunderstand. This arrangement works particularly well as a shibboleth to prevent people knowing what you're saying if they have the poor foresight to choose another language as their native tongue.
