I've spent many a day searching definitions just to make sure I'm using a word in the right way. I'll generally know the gist of a word and correct usage but I look it up to make sure.

I was recently accused of being a theological noncognitivist. That's what I get for trying to argue with a philosophy graduate. Turns out he wasn't wrong though.

Has that happened in the past two years? Almost certainly. I can't think of any specific instances, though. Usually I can infer what a new term means from context, but I'll still generally look it up (if I remember) to nail down its nuance).
