Bree-yark is most definitely not "I surrender" in the goblin language.

A foreign phrase that you tell someone means the opposite of what it actually means, in order that hilarity will ensue sometime later when they say it or hear it said.

In the Original Dungeons & Dragons adventure module B2 "The Keep on the Boderlands", one of the random rumors that characters can be told upon starting the adventure is that "'Bree-Yark!' is goblin-language for 'we surrender!". The DM, howerver, is told that it actually means "Hey, Rube!" and is a signal for any nearby goblins to come join in an attack.

If when they see you, you hear them yell "Bree-yark", that means they surrender, so go ahead and follow them into the next room to pick up their treasure.

murderhobo

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.

DM: The sad little orphan girl tugs at Steve's trenchcoat to get his attention, and ask for help saving her pet dog from...

Dave: I call dibs on the dog.

Whale

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.

"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
