speak potable

The term "speak potable" originates from the Italian peninsula; it is a coined expression to convey the need for a more fluid and understandable conversation, akin to potable water. If someone "speaks potable," it means they are proficient in expressing themselves well in the language.
Example 1:

Rizu: "I'm preparing a presentation for tomorrow's meeting."
Slurp: "Make sure to speak potable; we need to be clear with all the details."

Example 2:
Slurp: "I overheard their discussion, but they didn't seem to speak potable at all."
Rizu: "It's important to communicate clearly, especially in important conversations."

Content Speak

A form of sanitized language or euphemism used by online content creators when discussing sensitive or serious topics. This vocabulary, which includes words like "unalive" instead of "kill," is primarily used to avoid demonetization by advertisers on various platforms. The practice ultimately desensitizes the audience to the gravity of these subjects by watering down the very language used to describe them.
"Dude, did you hear about that little boy? Got graped and unalived by a PDF file, it's so messed up."

"Are you fucking serious right now?! You're talking about a child being raped and murdered by a pedophile and you're using that sanitized, spineless content speak bullshit?! What the absolute fuck is wrong with you? Talk like a goddamn human being!"
