Starbby-speak

Nonsensical terms created by Starbucks for branding purposes; often words misappropriated from other languages. E.g., Grande/Tall/Venti, Chai Latte, Vivanno, Hand-crafted Beverage, Latte; barista

Someone held up the line by refusing to use Starbby-speak; she confused the barista by ordering a "small" coffee.
