I’m talking about words which no longer have their ordinary meaning to you anymore because of this program. I can think of 2:
Level: Anywhere I see this word, I think of I, II or III
Duration: I think of interest rate changes and bond values, and I find it strange using it for its ordinary meaning
Pass: Dude, word…
Does anyone have any other?

Not a L3 term, but I often think of autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity and wonder what has become of my life.

Yeah, I often have the same problem when I hear Molodovsky. Also from level II, for whatever reason I have the phrase “Durbin Watson is a serial killer” burned in my brain. Now whenever someone casually brings up a serial killer (happens all the time), I instantly think they’re talking about Durbin Watson… weird.

Program used to be an IT word near-monopoly…
and CFA, to used to mean an adjective for the Franc (called CFA Franc), a West and Central African unit of currency…
