Something like that, where no 2hr lesson is necessary for the average joe to get what you're saying.

I do try to avoid jargon, but it really is not difficult to explain the term "bourgeoisie" or "bourgeois" to people. You can just say "oh yeah sorry im talking about rich assholes"
I try not to use it because I think it'd give up the ghost for some people, who you'd scare away or enrage if you used the jargon. It's almost, but not quite, the same as people saying 'Das Kapital' instead of 'Capital'.
It isn’t pronounced boo-shwah in French or English tho

It's more like boor-shwah. Not bore-shwah, because that would imply the o be short, which it isn't imo.
That’s a good point tbf.
