Ok, a reference to a lagrangian would leave highschoolers in the dust,
but what about context clues? In some situations one can generally
understand, if an article is well-written, what an unknown term
generally means. In an actual conversation, however, one can always ask
for clarification without slowing the conversation to a halt. I think
understanding, in this situation, depends on the persistence of the
person trying to understand.
